Ortiz was arguable the biggest 2027 stock riser not only in Southern Arizona but in the state. Ortiz is one of the more athletic guards in the state regardless of class. Ortiz received the following honors this season: 3A Conference First Team, 3A South Region First Team and was selected as the MVP in the 3A State Championship Game where he led Palo Verde to the first state title in school history. He averaged 19.6 points, 1.4 assists, 4 rebounds and 1.9 steals per game. Ortiz was lights out from beyond the arc this season shooting 87/182 (48%) and finished the season with 567 points. Ortiz will hit his 1000 career points mark early in the upcoming season as he is already at 945 career points. Expect a lot of momentum to build in his recruitment this off-season.
