1. Salesian remains a team built on defense, unselfishness and depth, but the leading man for the 2024-2025 season will be 2025 wing Alvin Loving, who committed to Yale after the event. Loving is a power wing who is a good shooter, can put the ball on the floor and finish through contact.

2. Riordan lost multiple Division I signees, but will boast the best backcourt in NorCal with incoming transfer Semetri Carr and returning junior Andrew Hillman. The duo can both create their own shot with Carr putting pressure on with his quickness and Hillman has the strength to overpower other guards.

3. Inderkum went 3-1 over the weekend with regional wins over Clayton Valley Charter and Folsom. The Tigers have a strong core coming back with 2025 forward Taylen Goodman, 2025 post Malachi Johnson and 2027 point guard Siincere Hudson. Could Inderkum be the top team in Sacramento next season?

4. Speaking of Clayton Valley Charter, 2025 point guard Elijah Perryman has backed up a good junior season and is a guard to watch over the next year. He has a good handle, sets up teammates well and is a shooting threat.

5. Rocklin 2025 forward Mark Lavrenov stood out for the Thunder and solidified himself as one of the top returning seniors in NorCal. In speaking with several college coaches that were there to watch him, they walked away thinking he was a legit Low to Mid D1 recruit.

6. San Ramon Valley went 4-0 with wins over Mitty and Clovis North. The Wolves have a pair of guards that will keep them among the best teams in the region with Luke Isaak and Thomas Conley.

7. Sacramento also went 4-0 with a win over Clovis West. 2025 guard Sir Marius Jones has picked up offers from Fresno State and Weber State since the event and he is joined by Sheldon transfer Jaden Spears. Sheldon has also lost Muhammad Singleton, who has transferred to Fairfax.

8. The talent level remains high in the West Catholic Athletic League led by Riordan and Mitty. However, another player who showed well at Cali Live was Valley Christian-San Jose 2025 wing Brayden Harris, who is one of the top scorers in NorCal.
