JP Pihvovs | 6’9” PF | Archbishop Riordan High | Oakland Soldiers
JP Pihvovs is one of the more intriguing forwards in Northern California. At 6’9”, 220 pounds, he brings a unique combination of size, mobility, and skill to the game. What makes Pihvovs stand out is his versatility— he can impact the game in a number of ways.
Pihvovs is a strong rebounder and a reliable paint presence. He uses his size and motor to clean the glass and finish plays around the rim. During the EYBL season, he didn’t step out and showcase much perimeter shooting, but his form looks clean. That was reinforced this summer when he shot 33% from three while competing with the Latvia U18 national team.
Defensively, Pihvovs uses his length and timing to alter shots and protect the rim. He’s active around the basket and has the tools to anchor a defense.
Look for Pihvovs to start pulling in more offers and gaining national attention as Riordan makes a run at a state title.
