Expert Analysis
John Millyard | Prep Hoops Scout
Del Rio is one of the more underrated guards in the state. A very high character kid who can flat out play. A sniper from the perimeter off the pass. Tremendous skill with the dribble and footwork to match. Plays well through physicality. A playmaker on both ends of the court. Great vision and continually shows his high IQ for the game. Del Rio helped lead Cienega to a 17-1 regular season last year and will look to have similar success this season. Coaches will get a chance to see Del Rio in the Section 7 Main Weekend where I would expect some interest from high academic programs.

A very under the radar prospect that I believe should be getting more attention is Del Rio. Del Rio is one of the top competitors in Southern Arizona and despite things out of his control I’ve always seen Del Rio play at the highest level he can. He was crucial for the Bobcats on their 17-1 regular season that saw him average 11.3 points, 4.5 assists, 7.2 rebounds and 2,5 steals per game. Del Rio earned First Team All 5A Southern Region honors while helping the Bobcats go 10-0 in region play. A very physical guard who can get to his spots and score well. Another player I expect to get attention this off season.

The Bobcats are a tough team. One of the teams that won their brackets and moved on to the big weekend. Del Rio was vital for the Bobcats. Game one saw him go 4/6 from deep finishing with 16 points and in the game to decide whether they move on or not he went 7/11 from the field with 15 points. Very good at creating scoring opportunities for himself and can knock it down at a high percentage of the dribble. Finished and a very clutch and tough basket through contact that helped in a much needed momentum shift. Sees the floor really well and moves and creates a way from the ball. High IQ player and shooter.
