I am not the first, and certainly will not be the last person to write about Mateen Cleaves Jr Mateen Cleaves Jr 6'3" | PG/CG Dream City Christian | 2028 #43 Nation AZ this spring. Everyone has been raving about his scoring ability or counting stats he’s putting up. However, that isn’t what is most impressive to me. It’s the fact that he doesn’t play or carry himself like an underclassmen, and for sure not one playing up a grade level. Talking on defense, celebrating on the bench, and taking care of the basketball. These are things that you don’t see on a box score but have a huge impact on teammate performance and the outcome of the basketball game. It’s going to be tough to keep Mateen out of the #1 spot when the 2028 rankings come out.
