Since Salpointe Catholic sophomore-to-beĀ Majok DengĀ completed his first season for the Lancers, averaging 9.5 points, he has played 32 games on the AAU circuit for the Arizona Powerhouse Hoops 15U team. Some recruiting analysts believe Deng, a 6-foot-5-inch wing player, will develop into one of the top 10 or 20 prospects in the entire Class of 2019. His AAU teamĀ is 31-1, and he is the chief attention-getter.
