Paul Hernandez after viewing play at the Ron Massey Memorial Fall Hoops Classic:

"2024 6’3 Darnez Slater (Roosevelt/Eastvale CA) (near Fresno)
Slater continues to show that he is a legit Division 1 prospect and impacts the game in countless ways on defense and offense. Slater led the Mustangs with 21 points in an opening night thriller, as Roosevelt defeated St. Bernard in a comeback win. Slater followed that up with a team-high 17 points in a semifinal loss to St. John Bosco. Slater plays well on and off the ball, has the moves and handles to create shots off the dribble, has the physical build to bully through traffic in the paint, and has great footwork to pivot off his defender for tough fadeaway jumpers he hits routinely. Slater is capable of defending the 1 through 3 positions effectively, is the first on the ground for loose balls, and uses his quick leaping ability to control the boards amongst the bigs. Plays at a fast pace with control and the court vision to make tough passes in tight windows. Flat out competes every play."

--------------------

Dinos Trigonis: "Pangos Best of SoCal Fall Showcase Notes: 6-3 2024  Zander Jimenez (Salesian/Richmond CA) is a Jorge Gutiérrez-type guard (former Cal player/late 2000s) that has the athleticism, burst & instincts to make plays on both ends & that 4.0-PLUS GPA ain't too shabby either."
