2025 6’1 F Mackenzie Buckner Mackenzie Buckner 6'0" | PF Bella Vista Prep | 2025 State AZ (Betty Fairfax): Buckner is a superstar in the making. At the 4 position, she dominates from the inside out. Her game reminds me of Candace Parker with her ability to dominate down low, knock down shots from the perimeter, and lead a fast break off a defensive rebound. Buckner utilizes a sweet behind the back dribble move in transition to leave her opponents in the dust. Buckner currently has 8 double-doubles in her first 15 games of her sophomore season. She is averaging 14pts, 9rbs, 4stls, and 3asts a game.
2023 5’10 G Madelynn Muniz Madelynn Muniz 5'9" | CG Boulder Creek | 2023 State AZ (Boulder Creek): The University of Idaho commit is a straight-up shooter.

She is leading the state in made 3pt attempts with 55 made 3s at 41% from the arc. Muniz is having a heck of a senior season and will look forward to following her at the Division-1 level.

She is currently averaging 18pts, 11rbs and 4stls a game for Flowing Wells. The Westmont College commit is poised for one last run at a state title. She is the heartbeat of her squad and is capable of taking her team to a state championship once again.
2024 6’21 F/C Aniyah Riddell Aniyah Riddell 6'1" | PF Desert Vista | 2024 State AZ (Mountain Pointe): Riddell is an interior force in the class of 2024. If an opponent get stuck behind Riddell, Riddell is going to score on her. Riddell’s post toolbox contains a nice drop step move and baby hook in the post. She has also showed the ability to stretch the floor by knocking down 5 of 11 3pt attempts to start the season. Riddell is the heart and soul of her Mountain Pointe squad and is averaging 15pts, 13rbs, and 2blks a game through the first 9 games of the season.
2026 6’1 G/W Jerzy Robinson Jerzy Robinson 6'0" | CG Sierra Canyon | 2026 State CA (Desert Vista): Robinson is one of the best prospects in the nation in the class of 2026. She is as versatile as it comes in the girls basketball game. Robinson is averaging 18pts and 10rbs a game through the first 12 games of her freshman season. Robinson reminds me of former WNBA star Maya Moore with her ability to hit tough shots and take over a game. Robinson has numerous power-5 scholarship offers and has a real chance to be one of the best players Arizona has seen in a long time.
2025 5’7 G Aiyanna Perkins Aiyanna Perkins 5'7" | CG Bella Vista Prep | 2025 State AZ (McClintock): Perkins is an electric scoring guard in the class of 2025. She has Allen Iverson like handles with the ability to knock down shots from anywhere on the court. Perkins is best when she has the ball in her hands and is getting down hill. It’s almost certain she is going to break down her first defender, the next question asked is if the second one can stop her. Perkins is leading the state of Arizona in scoring right now averaging 27pts, 6rbs, and 6stls a game for McClintock.
2025 5’10 G Alexa Simpson Alexa Simpson 5'11" | SF Saguaro | 2025 State AZ (Saguaro): Simpson has put the Arizona girl’s basketball community on notice during her breakout sophomore season. Simpson is averaging 23pts, 7rbs, and 4stls a game through Saguaro’s first 14 games. Simpson is athletic, explosive and an elite defender. Her wingspan allows her to jump passing lanes and create easy transition baskets for herself. The Sabercats are a quiet 12-2 and have really started to raise some eyebrows as they continue to validify themselves as contenders.
2023 5’4 G Ashiian Hunter Ashiian Hunter 5'5" | PG Mesa | 2023 State AZ (Mesa): Hunter is an electric scoring point guard in the class of 2023. She is currently averaging 20pts, 5rbs, and 3asts a game for Mesa. Hunter has played over 90 games in her Mesa career and has averaged 19pts a game total throughout her 4-year career at Mesa. Hunter surprisingly remains uncommitted in the class of 2023. Whichever college program ends up getting her is getting an absolute steal at the point guard position.
2024 G Dominique Nesland Dominique Nesland 5'10" | PG Xavier College Prep | 2024 State AZ (Xavier College Prep): Nesland is the definition of a gamer. Nesland can put up numbers in a hurry but not just in the scoring column. The Junior sensation is averaging 20pts, 5rbs,5asts, and 4stls a game on a very talented Xavier College Prep team. Nesland has drew the attention of numerous D1 programs including University of Louisiana-Monroe, Southern Utah, Seattle, Cal Baptist, Navy and Army.
2025 5’10 G Sidney Anderson Sidney Anderson 5'10" | CG Salpointe Catholic | 2025 State AZ (Ironwood Ridge): Anderson is a silky-smooth guard in the class of 2025 with a ton of skill. She can take her opponent off the dribble, make it rain from the perimeter and rebound at a high level. Anderson is averaging 19pts, 5rbs, and 4stls a game through the first 14 games of her sophomore season. Anderson plays the game of basketball at her speed which makes her so successful. A division-1 talent with a very high ceiling.
2025 6’1 W/F Taliyah Henderson Taliyah Henderson 6'1" | SF Salpointe Catholic | 2025 State AZ (Salpointe Catholic): Henderson has started to embrace the role as the number 1 prospect in the class of 2025 in Arizona. Henderson is going up against opposing teams best defender every night and is the center of attention on her Salpointe Catholic squad. Henderson is averaging 19pts and 8rbs a game through the first 12 games of her sophomore season. Henderson is athletic as they come and still has a very very high ceiling on the basketball court.
2024 5’11 W/F Ava Pautz Ava Pautz 5'11" | SF Notre Dame Prep | 2024 State AZ (Notre Dame Prep): Pautz is an athletically skilled prospect in the class of 2024. She is capable of playing any position on the floor, but is best when getting to the basket. Pautz is averaging 18pts and 9rbs a game through 14 games this year. Notre Dame Prep will be a very tough opponent come playoff time because of Pautz’s ability to take a game over.
2025 5’3 G Sophia Doromal Sophia Doromal 5'4" | PG Cesar Chavez | 2025 State AZ (Caesar Chavez): Don’t let her height fool you, Doromal is the nucleus of her Caesar Chavez squad. Doromal is a very quick sophomore point guard with the ability to knock down shots from far beyond the 3pt line. Doromal is averaging 16pts,4rbs and 3stls a game through her first 10 games of the season. Doromal is lethal from the perimeter and is really good at breaking down her defender with her handles.
2026 5’3 G Tatiana Harness (Leading Edge Academy-Gilbert): Harness is averaging 20pts, 5rbs and 4stls a game through the first 15 games of the season. Harness does it all for LEAGEC as she is currently the 10th leading scorer in the state. The super freshman is starting to raise some eyebrows as she continues to put up monster numbers.
2024 5’10 G Madison Pond Madison Pond 5'10" | SF Estrella Foothills | 2024 State AZ (Estrella Foothills): Pond is off to a hot start during her junior season. Pond’s wingspan allows her to always have a hand in the passing lane and create deflections. Offensively, Pond is very efficient shooting 50% from the field. She is currently averaging 14pts, 5rbs, and 4stls a game through her team’s first 15 games.
2024 5’9 G Mia Singstock Mia Singstock 5'9" | SF Pinnacle | 2024 State AZ (Pinnacle): Singstock is a natural scorer in the class of 2024. Singstock is a knockdown shooter from 3 as she has made 33 threes at 46% from the arc. Singstock isn’t just a shooter. She can break down her opponent off the dribble and pull-up in the midrange or finish at the rim. Singstock is averaging 19pts and 6rbs a game through the first 13 games of the season. I don’t see her slowing down in the home-stretch of the season as Pinnacle will rely a lot on her scoring come playoff time.
