Despite playing the guard position, Burries has piled up 13 double-doubles this season. He has scored 43 or more points in a game four times this season and set
a new career-high with 56 points in a win over Inglewood back in
December.
Regarded as the No. 11 prospect in the Class of 2025 according to
247Sports, Burries is expected to choose between Alabama, Arizona, Oregon, SMU, Tennessee and USC.
The Mustangs are expected to be the biggest challengers to knock off two-time Open Division state champion
Harvard-Westlake (Studio City), which is 29-1 on the season and ranked No. 2 in the MaxPreps Top 25.
