This year's 11th Annual Arizona Preps Fall Showcase was another exciting event, filled with the majority of the state's best basketball talent.

This year's Fall Showcase was, once again, well represented by the state's best and saw many new faces this year take center stage throughout the weekend.

Our staff would like to sincerely thank all of the parents and each of the players that made this year's event one to remeber for many years to come.

This year's Fall Showcase Slam Dunk Competition was one for the ages (in case you missed it), as it was one of the best dunk competitions ever, and definitely the best dunk competition of all 11 Showcases. While Mesa High School's 5-foot-10 junior Jahii Carson, Tucson Palo Verde HS 5-foot-10 senior Bryce Cotton and Mesa HS 6-foot-8 senior Blondy Baruti would each electrify the crowd in attendance with their amazing dunks, Bryce Cotton would bring home the championship trophy in exciting fashion.
