The News Tribune’s 2025 all-state boys basketball team
Every year, the state of Washington produces exceptional basketball talent at the high school level.
Here is The News Tribune’s 2025 all-state boys basketball team, as selected by our high school sports staff.
Player of the year
Jaylen Petty
Rainier Beach | Guard, 6-0, sr.
Transferred back to Rainier Beach after two seasons at Auburn and made the most of his senior season, lighting up opponents and proving unguardable at the 3A state tournament at the Tacoma Dome. High-level athlete, elite ball handler and knockdown shooter averaged 24.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 3.2 steals per game. Named this year’s state Gatorade player of the year and WIBCA’s “Mr Basketball.” New Mexico signee.
First team
Cam Hiatt
Edmonds-Woodway | Guard, 6-4, sr.
Put Edmonds-Woodway on his back, all the way to the Class 3A state championship game against Rainier Beach. 3A Wesco MVP, downhill scorer outmuscled opponents all season, averaging 21.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Dartmouth signee.
Josiah Lee
Glacier Peak | Guard, 6-2, sr.
Few were better at creating space off the dribble than this smooth-shooting guard with a nearly-unguardable fadeaway jumper. Averaged 22.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.1 steals. Le Moyne College (New York) signee.
Kaden Powers
Rainier Beach | Guard, 6-5, sr.
Teammate Jaylen Petty grabbed most of the headlines at the state tournament, but Powers was just as integral a piece for Mike Bethea’s 3A title winners. Averaged 19 points, 11 rebounds and five assists. Rutgers signee.
Jeremiah Harshman
Annie Wright | Guard, 6-1, sr.
Sometimes he facilitated, sometimes he scored, leading Tacoma’s best team to the 1A state championship. Averaged 18 points, eight rebounds and eight assists per game, an unselfish guard with a high basketball IQ and deadly stepback shot. This year’s TNT All-Area player of the year.
Jalen Davis
Bremerton | Guard, 6-2, soph.
A star in the making and a bona fide scoring machine, Davis never looked sped up and filled up the stat sheet in the blink of an eye all season for the Class 2A state champions. Averaged 26.4 points, 8.5 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 5.4 steals this winter. Holds offers from UW, WSU and Stanford with more surely on the way.
