Naas Griffin | 6’5 G | 2026

Naas exploded early with 11 first-quarter points and 23 in the first half, finishing with 34. Griffin is one of the most dangerous players in NorCal with a live dribble. When he catches the ball in triple threat, his shooting ability, athleticism, and shot creation force defenses to load up and often double him.

One sequence summed up his night. Griffin inbounded the ball to an already doubled Kaden Gibbs. The pass was thrown high, Gibbs jumps up and tips the ball back mid-air, and Naas jumps up and finishes the play with a layup. The two showed great awareness, instinct, and execution.

Griffin scored 56 points across two playoff games this week. When he gets rolling, he is tough to contain.
