Noah is a true versatile weapon, a forward with guard-like instincts, elite court vision, and a relentless motor that fuels every inch of the floor. He can guard multiple positions, anchor a defense, mix it up on the boards, and then turn around and run the offense with poise and purpose. His feel for the game is fierce, and he’s the kind of teammate every coach dreams of: unselfish, adaptable, and always locked in. He thrives in structure but can also create when the play breaks down, and his basketball IQ allows him to fit easily in any lineup. Whether he’s getting others involved, blocking shots, or cleaning the boards, Noah makes winning plays and doesn’t need the spotlight to dominate a game.

He averaged 13 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks, and 2 steals per game this past season, showing off his ability to be a stat sheet stuffer in every category. That all-around production came with a massive increase in responsibility. With his role expanded, Noah embraced the challenge of being a primary option and improved his aggression and scoring ability from the year prior. His focus this offseason has been on building strength to finish through defenders and developing more self-creation skills, especially when his team needs a bucket in crunch time. He’s also expanding his off-ball shooting and quick-trigger shot creation. And he’s putting that work to use, scoring 29 points and grabbing 8 rebounds in a standout performance that turned heads and reminded everyone what he’s capable of. After a strong AAU season with Midwest Basketball Club, he walked away more confident, more prepared, and with his first official offer in hand.

Noah describes himself as a mix between Draymond Green and Russell Westbrook, a do-it-all leader who competes with intensity and always finds a way to impact the game. He gets fired up when his teammates step up and deliver, feeding off the momentum and bringing vocal leadership to every huddle. When facing adversity, he meets it with patience and focus, trusting the work he’s put in. The best advice he’s received is, " You can talk about what you want to do, but none of it matters until you make it happen." Noah takes that personally. His approach is built on action, work ethic, and setting an example that pushes others forward.

Off the court, Noah loves being with friends and family, playing video games, participating in school activities, and playing pickleball. His life revolves around sports, faith, and community. He attends church every week and stays involved with the people who’ve supported him since day one.

I assess that Noah’s versatility, size, and leadership make him an immediate difference-maker at the next level. He can play inside-out, guard multiple spots, run an offense, and carry a team when needed. Programs in search of a complete player who wins on effort, IQ, and selflessness should be watching closely.

Noah is just getting started. As he grows into his strength and continues to fine-tune his shot creation, expect him to become one of the most dependable and impactful forwards in his class. He’s built for the big moments and wired to do whatever it takes to win. Expect a breakout season ahead. Stay tuned.
