looks the part at shooting guard, standing at 6’5. His length and frame allow him to play passing lanes, and he will force turnovers if opponents underestimate his reach. He can also put his size to use on offense, where his long strides help him attack the basket and he’s one to dunk it. In addition to his attacking ability, he has a jumper in his bag, and he had a few games this season where he hit multiple 3s. While his senior stats don’t necessarily tell the whole story, there’s certainly upside there.

was on fire for Reno in the first quarter, scoring 7 straight points via free throws, a tough layup, and a 3-pointer. He then connected on another 3 in the second quarter to tie the game at 19. In the second half, he dropped in a few more points and finished as the Huskies’ leading scorer with 13. While Reno didn’t get the win, he put his craftiness on display.

is suiting up for Reno this season and I’m sure he’d like to help them make the playoffs. He is one of the taller guards in Northern Nevada. Which makes it easy for him to shoot over shorter defenders. And he also has an advantage when it’s time to rebound.

will be attending Reno High School this upcoming season as I mentioned in one of my previous articles. He has some legit length and also has a nice shooting stroke. When he really gets going, he can light it up. Which leads me to believe that I has the chance to be a stock riser in the future.

Williams is gaining traction after a strong performance at the Skills Summit. The 2026 wing from Reno has recently garnered interest from some local JC’s.

James is a tremendous athlete in the open court, showcasing powerful and creative above-the-rim finishing ability. He can effectively create for himself and others off the dribble, and is a capable 3-point shooter both off the catch and the dribble. Williams also possesses a solid midrange game, good touch around the basket, and combines his strong build with good lateral quickness to be a versatile offensive and defensive contributor.

Williams will be called on step up his game in the playoffs. That shouldn’t be a problem for the wing who has lead the Miners all season. The 3 and D guy averaged over 12 points per game for the season.

Williams is ready to make a name for himself this year. If Manogue is successful this season, a big part will be due to the wing. He’s known as a shooter, but don’t get it confused he’ll impact the game even when his shot isn’t falling. Williams is a competitve wing, that could be on the verge of a big season.
