Ayomide Adewumi (2026) Carolina Waves
What a high energy kid, with length and athleticism to go with it. She defends very well. Her size and agility give her a lot of defensive diversity. She can patrol the paint, rebound, block shots and intimidate, but she can also dig in and go toe to toe on the perimeter. She runs the floor so well, giving her team a post matchup nightmare for some bigger opposing posts. She works hard inside also gets to the foul line.

Madalyn Provost (2025) Maine Firecrackers
This young lady got hot! She is a shooter supreme! She is someone that the defense had to key in on and know where she was at all times. They tried to defend her face to face and she still got her shots off and still made enough to keep her team in it and the bench going crazy. She is not a stand alone shooter only either, she handles it well enough to be relied on. She put the ball on the deck some as well and got to the foul line.

Asa Holcombe (2025) Ohio Future Shumate
Asa really gets after it, she plays 94 feet, has a high motor and a nonstop energy. She has the skillset to play and defend multiple positions. She is a smooth offensive kid with a diverse game, she can shoot the ball, and she can put it on the floor. She’s a very willing passer and never forces anything. Plays with a calm demeanor and never gets too high or too low, just keeps playing hard.

Nicolette Kerstein (2025) Mac Irvin Fire Godfather
This guard plays an exciting type of basketball, and she is very advanced with her handles. She has the ball on a string and does things with it that can kind of make you say wow. It’s not that it’s super showy, but she’s always in command of the ball and uses that skill great when dribbling through traffic. She can go in amongst the trees and keep the ball moving with low dribbles, and beat any press by herself. She’s also an advanced scorer with a great shot and the slashing ability to score in an instant.

Arianna Schley (2026) Wisconsin Lakers
Lots to love about this young lady but the most of all might be her willingness to be blue collar. She is big and strong, and a solid athlete, and she uses all of that to make so many hustle plays and do the dirty work that most will not. She finds a body on every shot, she chases down long rebounds, get son the floor and just does an all around great job of putting it all on the floor. Constant competitor that every coach can appreciate.

Janaya Cooper (2028) Always 100
Even at a young age, Janaya is a bonafide high flyer! Not only does she fly around and swoop up lots of rebounds, but her team is able to routinely throw her lob passes off the baseline inbounds. She is skilled enough to catch these mid air and finish, every time. Her athleticism is off the charts, she is a flash moving up and down the court. She still very young, and as her skills develop, look out!

Rayan Hitt (2026) Michigan Drive Premier
Rayan excels because she has a very high IQ, court awareness and feel for the game. She has really good handles, she often attacks the baseline where she is really good at creating chaos. Whether it’s finishing, getting to the foul line or a baseline dish, she seems to make the baseline a part of her game. She is an advanced shooter that has a quick release and smooth stroke. She has a strong build that really helps her off the dribble when she gets in the paint.

Brooklyn Love (2026) Wisconsin Shooters Puma
Love this young ladies energy, she slashes and dashes with ease and just keeps creating! She can create for herself or others. She gets to the line so often, and she makes really great decisions off the dribble as she’s always looking for drop offs or kick outs. She is not going to the rim with only the intention to score. She’s a very sneaky defender as well, she’ll get after the ball, but also sneak a surprise steal in the full court when the inbounder is least expecting it.

Camden Ward (2025) Team BWright Shipley
A high energy post that will literally do anything to get a rebound. She can body people or fly around with a big rebounding radius. It doesn’t take opponents long to realize they do not want to get in her way when she’s on a rebounding mission. She will literally punish anyone who competes with her. She is also a solid on ball defender that stays active with her feet and hands and refuses to let anyone beat her.
Paige Donnelly (2027) United NJ
Paige is a very shifty PG! She has an already advanced change of direction and change of speed at a young age. She is smooth to the basket, she can finish at the rack, or pull up with some finesse and score on the run. She is calm with the ball, but can really get moving if she needs to. She doesn’t force anything and plays very well with a high level big because she understands passing angles and how to be an effective post entry passer.
Leah Kearney (2028) United NJ
Huge upside for this young lady, with all caps! She is an 8th grader, well over 6 foot already and showing signs of incredible potential. She already does things that bigs have to do, rebound, protect the rim, set good screens and run the floor. However she showed some polished post moves beyond her years, that many older players aren’t able to do! She showed off a solid power dribble, and delightful spin move and the ability to consistently get to the rim. The ceiling is very high for Leah!
Chellise Jones (2026) Mac Irvin Fire Thompson
Chellise is a big strong post player that roams the paint like few can! She has the strength and frame to battle and hold her own against bigger posts. She also has the quickness and agility to scrap for rebounds out of her area. She has adequate ball skills as well and was seen rebounding and leading the break. Very high energy, high motor kid!
Regan Braatan (2027) Mac Basketball
Kid knows ball, and she plays with what seems like a sixth sense. She’s mad her name so far off being a shooter, but she’s way more than a shooter. She definitely has a solid jumper from range. But she rebounds well, she can get the break moving off of rebounds very quickly. What she might lack in height, she makes up for in toughness and strength, as she’s build solid. Has solid handles and most definitely has a high IQ and court awareness.
Yohama Fami (2026) Sisters Keeper
So long and impactful. She has a big time influence on the game on the defesnive end. She obviously blocks a lot of shots, but also also changes a lot of shots. Not only in the traditional way as far as making kids alter shots or double pump, but she alsi strikes fear into shooters who will hold back and not shoot to avoid the monster in the middle. She gives you the effort on the boards that you’d like to see from a kid this size, and runs the floor well.
Taylor Robinson (2025) Bradley Beal Elite
Love this kids moxy. She is so skilled and calm with the ball. She floats in and out of the defense, spending a lot of time deep in enemy territory putting stress on the defense and making plays. She plays at such a high speed in transition and almost never makes a bad play or decision. She showed off a nice outside shot, as well as some nice scoring moves on the move. Kid plays with a lot of grit and intensity, which is valuable at her size.
Audrey Beyer (2026) East Coast United Family
Big time, big time shooter! This kid has a strap and she’s not afraid to let it fly! Quick release, doesn’t need much space. She can shoot it on a moments notice, in transition, coming off screens, closely guarded, none of it matters to her. She hit multiple very tough shots, and got at least one four point play. She also showed plenty of ability to put the ball on the deck and get to the basket.
Casey O’Connell (2026) East Coast United Family
Casey is a straight up baller! Her stroke from deep is so pure. She has a very quick release, and very smooth form with consistently good results. She is very physical and will punish anyone who challenges her on the boards. She has the ability to put the ball on the floor and finish with floaters or pullups. This kid is intense, she plays hard all the time and she is supremely skilled!
Loren Green (2027) Team Northeast
Loved how this kid could play at high spped, mkae plays getting to the rim and the foul line, but also play at a more controlled slow pace soothing the team and the offense. She can truly score at all three levels as she showed off some nice runners and pull ups. Very reliable outside shooter and a constant agitator of the defense off the dribble. Very tight handles, she can handle even the toughest defenders.
Nyajuacni Riak (2028) Wisconsin Purple Aces
This kid’s upside is through the roof! She has’t stepped foot in a high school gym yet but a Big Ten coach I was sitting next to said she is their dream recruit. She is long an athletic, still pretty raw, but you can tell the baseline for stardom is there. she runs very well, plays off the floor, despite being young, she doesn’t make many mistakes. She has patience around the rim, finishes with nice tough with either hand. So much room to develop, and it’s going to be fun to watch.
Kahmyla Bell (2026) Bradley Beal Elite
This kid is an absolute problem in the paint! She isn’t a giant, but she plays much bigger than she is. She quite simply outworks everyone on the boards. If she’s not gobbling up the boards, she’s keeping it alive or preventing a clean rebound for the opponent. She’s not just a hustle player though, she showed plenty of skill. She has much softer hands and better footwork than you normally associate with all out hustle kids. Her defensive fundamentals are really solid as well, she stays low and wide, moves her feet and stays active. Team defense awareness is very high as well.
Evelyn McKnight (2026) SMAC Lady Ballers
It’s tough to overlook the fact that someone hit a game winner from 25 feet, but with Evelyn, she does so much throughout the game, that it’s kind of easy. The way she orchestrates the offense when she in, playing at the exact pace and function that is needed at that moment, especially considering it’s always changing, is very impressive. She always seemed to know exactly when her squad needed a bucket, including the two baskets that tied this game late and won it at the buzzer. She has that ability to hunt her baskets and get something at any time to give her squad a spark, or tonight, a win!
Aniyah Neal (2025) IDream Black
Love this kids combination of athleticism and skill. She really truly gets after it. She showed the ability to take a board or a steal to the house pretty quickly, and an abilty to finish in transition at a very high speed. I appreciated that she never leaked out, she took pride in helping finishing possessions before she took off on the break. She rebounded and battled on the boards, made several hustle plays and never stopped giving max effort.
Zoe Mesuch (2025) Team Northeast
Smallest kid on the court a lot of times, if not all the time, but she’s a firecracker! Has good tight handles and plays with an intensity that is paramount for a kid her size. She has a very quick pull on her jumpers, and hits with some consistency. She shoots with confidence, and don’t need much space, and can really hurt some defenders pride with some of the deep bombs she hits in peoples face.
Jacaia Onunwor (2025) SMAC Future
Jacaia is the never ending spark plug. She flies around and looks like’s she always having fun. Her athleticism is off the charts, witch allows her to make so many impactful defensive plays. She’s not only making defensive plays though, she’s turning them into points and helpers for her teammates every time you turn around. She’s an absolute pest in any pressure defensive situation, with speed and vertical ability to spare.
