Previous Rank: 70rnThe Kamiakin forward is a strong kid down low who can play solid basketball on both ends. He can matchup against bigger guys and gets good leverage on both ends, has quick moves and uses his shoulders well to create space for shots. But what really stands out is his effort. He’s a worker on both sides of the ball who continues to steadily improve.

I liked this kid a lot when I saw him over the summer but he looked even better against West Valley (Yakima) last week. He’s 6-foot-4 now, looks quicker but still strong, and showed he can bang inside while he matched up against Parker Mills Parker Mills 6'6" | PF West Valley-Yakima | 2026 State WA for a lot of the game. He was already a pretty technically sound player and the physical growth makes him a pretty interesting player to watch as the year goes on.

Previous Rank: WLrnMalisani was a watch list guy at first because he’s a bit undersized in the post, doesn’t provide a lot of athleticism, and hasn’t really stretched the floor as far as I’ve seen. However, he’s made a jump to the rankings because he understands his abilities and has done a great job working on the technical aspects to be a really effective player. He has a big frame and uses his body well to create space for shots, holds position well down low to snag rebounds, and displays good footwork, strength, and ball control to operate out of the block. He plays extremely hard and shows a great mindset on the court.
