After falling short in their Iolani Classic debut in 2022, the Tigers are bringing back the championship hardware to Arizona in 2025.

Adan Diggs poured a game-high 24 points to help Millennium (Goodyear, Ariz.) weather Owyhee (Meridian, Id), 65-53 in the Iolani Classic final Saturday night.

The sophomore phenom and tournament's Most Valuable Player, hit an array of jumpers as the shot clock wound down and scored 12 points in the final period.

"This is my first time being here and some of the seniors like Cam (Holmes) letting me know how it was gonna be out here. All the people in the city bring love and energy. That's definitely what I seen out here, man," Diggs said of his experience playing in Hawaii.

"We were like Batman and Superman. Every time we on the court, we tell each other that, we gotta be the best," Holmes added.

Gabe Coronado canned five 3-pointers to finish with 17 points and found an answer when Owyhee kept pace from behind the arc.

"They're always finding me. So yeah, they're always finding me for open shots and they believe in me," Coronado said.

Cameron Holmes felt the sting of falling short in 2022 as a freshman but found redemption as a senior to win it all. The Arizona signee finished with 16 points, eight boards, and seven assists.

"It feels amazing. I came here my freshman year, you know I didn't win and I was down for that, but I came back and got it back for my team," Holmes said.

The Storm knocked off MaxPreps' No. 13 Harvard-Westlake (Studio City, Calif.) in the semifinals, 53-43, and were attempting to knock off the 11th ranked Tigers.

Kaden Rogers paced Owyhee off the bench to finish with 14 points and brought the Storm within two to start the fourth quarter and tied the game at 46 with a pair of free throws.

Diggs got to the line to convert a pair of foul shots and made a layup and hit a jumper for a 52-48 lead.

Canaan Magness hit free throws at the 4:37 mark until DJ Spencer drove in for two.

Andy Harrington was whistled for a technical foul for going far out onto the court as he tried to call timeout. The Tigers started pulling away as Diggs hit both technical free throws and Holmes' putback made it, 58-50.

"It puts a lot of pressure on me, but you know, I've come to realize that this is what I gotta do. So I learned to calm myself, control my breathing, do what I got to do to lock in and knock down shots," Diggs said.

Owen Brown split a pair of his free throws for the Storm's final points. Diggs threw down a two handed flush in transition and Holmes hit a deep 3-pointer and blew a kiss to the crowd for the finishing touches.

Owyhee trailed early but were relentless and tied the game at 10 in the first quarter before Diggs hit his only 3 for a 13-10 lead.

Millennium extended its lead, 24-16 off of Coronado's left wing triple and the Tigers would take a 26-21 lead going into halftime.

Diggs hit a jumper and Holmes threw down a fast break dunk for a 30-21 lead. Logan Haustveit (14 points), the tournament's Most Outstanding Player, splashed back-to-back 3s to spark the crowd and his bench to trail, 30-27. Rogers brought Owyhee within one and Braylon Larson tied the game at 34. Brown and Coronado traded 3s to the delight of the crowd. Haustveit hit another 3 to bring the Storm within one, but Coronado answered for a 44-40 lead going into the fourth.

"It's a game of runs so they're a great team and they always give us a challenge every time we play them," Holmes said.

Owyhee returns to IHSAA play on Jan. 3 following the Damien Classic.

Millennium is ranked second in the MaxPreps Arizona Boys Basketball rankings behind Sunnyslope (Phoenix, Ariz.), a team that knocked them out of the Arizona Interscholastic Association Open Division semifinals last year.

"I love this team, they always have my back and we gonna get this championship this year," Holmes said as the Tigers look to their AIA play in January.
