Expert Analysis
Duvalier Johnson | Prep Hoops Scout
Kikenny heads into the season as a spark off the bench for Cherry Creek after making his mark as a sophomore. He’s confident in his jumper, hunts looks, and capitalizes when defenses relax. With their frontcourt attention, he’ll need to read, attack off-ball screens, and run in transition. Even with his Marquette lacrosse commitment, he’s a player Creek can lean on in key moments.

Read EvaluationDuvalier Johnson | Prep Hoops Scout
Kilkenny is a reliable 3-point shooter who spaces the floor with deep range and confidence. He averaged 4 points per game as a sophomore, as he makes defenders who sag off pay as he stays shot-ready at all times. As a combo guard, he brings defensive effort and anticipation. This season, he’ll be tasked with adding playmaking responsibilities while continuing to thrive in his role as a catch-and-shoot specialist. His game should open up as more offensive opportunities arise, and at Colorado Live, he may even have lead guard responsibilities, so it is essential for him to explore his game. Excited to see him in this kind of role.
