DALTON GROSKREUTZ, 6-5, 205, Snow Canyon — Is a great jumper who loves basketball but has a future as a Division I receiver in football. A 4.56 guy in the forty with great hands and physical tools that may make him the top pass catcher in Utah next year. Reminds some of Notre Dame receiver Jeff Samardzija.

LOUIS GARRETT, 6-5, Pine View — Wing player can score a bunch in a hurry. Decent outside range. Needs to bulk up. Younger brother of CSI shooting guard Brad Garrett who just signed to play at Oklahoma State.

JOSH SHARP, 6-7, Lone Peak — Forward plays on a loaded Quincy Lewis team and will find a Division I scholarship. A good athlete with good jumping ability. Lean but long.

JUSTIN HAMILTON, 6-10, Lone Peak — Will get offers on his size alone. Great improvement in use of both hands, size 17 shoe, a gosling ready to become a goose.

BRACKON FUNK, 6-6, Lone Peak — Can shoot the three but is more likely a power forward at the next level. All-State first team player with a 12-point average who made 24 treys.

REGGIE CHAMBERS, 6-0, West — Point guard who is quick but needs some work polishing his game. Already receiving attention from Weber State.

PATRICK DAY, 6-9, Woods Cross — A forward, who has transferred around (West Jordan), is an outside player who has the size and skills to push beyond a junior college offer.

2009 AND BEYOND: The best basketball talent may be a group of ninth-graders and sophomores who are already tearing it up as varsity players and wave-makers on the AAU scene around the country.

C.J. WILCOX, 6-5, Pleasant Grove — Is the son of former BYU guard Craig Wilcox. Could play the wing or shooting guard. Fundamentally sound shooter who can finish strong and has a standing vertical leap to knock off the 11-foot measuring stick. Has a relative, LaShawn Wilcox, a 5-11 guard who may be the fastest player in the state and could be headed for somebody's Division I secondary as a football player.

TYLER HAWS, 6-4, Lone Peak — Guard earned 5A Most Valuable Player honors as a sophomore for the Knights. A slasher who can break down defenders, he has similar speed to his father, former Cougar guard Marty Haws. Averaged 18.8 points a game, 81 percent free throw shooter, 57 from the field and 69 percent from beyond the arc.
