was Nevada Defensive Player of the Year last season, but he is quickly becoming just as dangerous on the offensive end. His elite speed and ability to hit the jets often leaves opponents in the dust, and he converts contested layups at a high rate. Beyond his driving ability, he has added a reliable mid-range jumper and is a legitimate threat to rise up for a dunk when given a lane. He’s notably had great performances against: Santa Margarita, Desert Pines, and Coronado. Overall, Johnson has been rounding out his game and continues to play with his foot on the gas. Expect him to remain a playmaker for the Gaels the rest of the way, and a difficult guard to match up with in the playoffs.

was using his quick first step to burn defenders to get to the rack. He also did a solid job of keeping his eyes on the rim as the defenders closed in on him. In addition to making some tough lay-ups, he got to the line and made a pair of free throws. Defensively, he covered ground at a rapid rate and made the DP guards feel uncomfortable with his relentless ball pressure.

utilized his acceleration skills to get to the rack frequently in Bishop Gorman’s game against Santa Margharita yesterday. He can speed right by his opponent when he really punches the gas pedal and he does a nice job of keeping his eyes on the rim as he navigates through defense. Despite the loss, he played well and finished the game with 20 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks.

hasn’t moved from the #3 slot. He’s the engine for the Gaels this season, bringing a ton of effort on both ends of the court. On defense, he consistently forces turnovers by making deflections or swiping the ball away from his opponent. And on offense, he attacks with purpose and can make very tough finishes that only few can convert. Expect him to put up solid stats this season and lead the Gaels to some wins.

is now running the show for Bishop Gorman. The shifty PG can utilize his explosive first step to get all the way to the basket for a slam dunk or acrobatic lay-up. Or he can dish it off if there’s help defense closing in on him. The reigning Defender Of The Year will also look to create momentum for his team by sparking transition with steals or blocks.
