Saint Mary's
Scout Report
A versatile wing who combines size, skill, and basketball IQ, this California prospect has quietly become one of the more undervalued players in his recruiting class.
Background
Dillan Shaw hails from Northridge, California, where he has developed into a standout player at Heritage Christian. Playing alongside elite teammates like 2027 guard Josiah Nance and fellow 2025 forward Tae Simmons, Shaw has been part of a loaded Heritage Christian program that consistently competes at the highest levels. His journey through the competitive Southern California basketball scene has prepared him well for the next level.
Playing Style
Shaw brings excellent size and length at 6-7 for the small forward position, allowing him to create matchup problems on both ends of the floor. His versatility shines through his ability to handle the ball, shoot from the perimeter, and use his frame effectively in the post when needed. He demonstrates solid court vision and basketball IQ, making smart decisions with the ball and finding ways to impact winning beyond just scoring. While he continues to develop his explosiveness and consistency from three-point range, Shaw's fundamental soundness and high basketball IQ make him a valuable piece for any program.
Recruitment
Shaw is committed to Saint Mary's, choosing the Gaels over other Division I suitors. Ranked #165 nationally in the class of 2025, he projects as a player who could develop into a key contributor in the WCC with his size, skill set, and understanding of the game. His commitment to Saint Mary's represents excellent value for a program known for developing fundamentally sound players.
