9 more basketball recruits who turned heads on summer 2021 circuits: SBLive Washington podcast

Updates on players ranging from Lake Washington's Rosa Smith to Curtis backcourt duo Tyce Paulsen and Zoom Diallo.

July recruiting windows are over, AAU basketball is phasing out as the 2021-22 high school sports calendar is weeks away from starting, and many high school basketball players in Washington are in a better spot in their recruitment than they were a couple months ago.

The SBLive Washington podcast took a look at nine more athletes — both boys and girls — who raised their recruiting profiles in the month of July. Each player mentioned is set to play a significant role in the 2021-22 high school basketball season. This is part two of a dive into the top players in 2021. Catch up on the first 10 names here.
