Heier was a major difference-maker this past weekend, helping lead his team to an undefeated 4-0 record with his offensive production and overall feel for the game. Hayden did an outstanding job contributing on offense and consistently putting pressure on defenses with his ability to create and capitalize on quality scoring opportunities. What makes Hayden so tough to defend is his ability to score at all three levels. He punishes defenses for overhelping or switching by finding great in-system shots, whether in transition or in the half-court. His combination of shot-making, decision-making, and offensive versatility allowed him to control the flow of games and play a huge role in his team’s successful weekend. Hayden also struck me as a lights-out shooter.

There were about 4-5 Sacred Hoops 16U prospects that did a ton of help for their stocks and South Dakota 2027 rankings status. They went 4-0 and Heier was a crucial playmaker for them. He impacts a game from start to finish, consistently and not having any periods of disappearing from the game. He plays fast in transition and puts a ton of pressure on the defense and will attack defenders. His ability to finish at the hoop won them some games.
