Players College Coaches Need to Pursue from G3 Live Showcase (Part Three)
6’1 ’25 Beau Harvey (Rising Pros Training) Though unsigned, it’s pretty clear that Harvey has the makings of a next-level floor general. It’s unclear why more schools haven’t gotten involved with one of the most successful players in North Carolina (playing in state championships three of his four possible seasons). Harvey is a smart, unselfish leader by example who simply knows how to set the...

Three Must-See Prospects for College Coaches at G3 Live Showcase
6’3 ’26 Ian Bailey (Team Vision) Seemingly every coach who watches Ian Bailey becomes a fan, yet his recruitment doesn’t align with his appeal and overall abilities. He enters the live period with offers from Stetson, Western Carolina, and UNC Asheville…pretty surprising for a guy who has been the epitome of a productive leader with no baggage or glaring weaknesses. However, coaches will have...

Young Prospects Worth Noting from Phenom G3
5’10 ’28 Christian Hargett (FBP Elite) There were a lot of impressive young guards on display, and Hargett was quietly as notable as any of them. He’s a smart, smooth, dynamic floor general with an excellent balance between scoring and playmaking.

Three More Unsigned Seniors from Phenom G3 Live
6’7 Dylan Mann (Strong Center) Given his impressive growth over the last few months, Mann has clearly vaulted himself into being a next-level prospect. He doesn’t do anything flashy, simply provides a steady, reliable presence on both ends of the floor. Mann displays nice touch and an understanding of how to score with his back to the basket. He moves well for his size and runs the floor...

AAU season is a great opportunity for players all around the country to show more of their game and development. Playing in the high school season, one can see how some players continue to grow as a prospect, but it may not be until the summer months that they really showcase their full potential.

Five More Notable Young Prospect from G3 Showcase
6’6 ’26 Antwon Young (Next Level SC) It’s surprising how little it feels like folks are talking about Young, despite his ridiculous intrigue and array of enticing tools at such an early age. He’s a long, explosive, physically overwhelming wing/forward prospect with the ability to play inside the paint or along the perimeter. Young moves like a perimeter player, yet is strong enough to battle...

Five Notable Young Prospects from G3 Showcase
6’8 ’26 Mark Caslaru (Next Level SC) If the common adage of “big men take longer to develop” rings true, then folks should be getting really excited about Caslaru and his overall trajectory. The 6-foot-8 post prospect already has the makings of a modern big man, displaying a notable blend of touch, perimeter shooting, and rim-protection ability. Caslaru understands how to anchor the paint,...

Five College-Worthy Seniors from G3 Showcase
6’2 ’24 Stephen Quinn (Team Charlotte) Arguably the most lethal shooting threat in every building he enters, it’s pretty easy to see why Quinn would be an asset for various programs. While there are plenty of available shooters, very few possess the unlimited range, quick release, and sheer accuracy of someone like him. Quinn can reliably attack closeouts, make extra passes, and mix it up as...

Player Standouts at Day Three of Phenom G3 Showcase
5’9 ’25 Gavin Fields (Carolina Charge) Though slightly undersized, it was easy to be impressed with Fields during his first showing of the day. He’s a blindingly quick lead guard with nice IQ and the ability to touch the paint at a seemingly nonstop rate. Fields finishes well, especially for his size, but also hits jumpers and creates well for himself and others. He’s a relentless defender with...

Player Standouts at Day Two of Phenom G3 Showcase
6’5 ’23 Bryce Cash (Team Curry) There are so many quality pieces within this talented Team Curry group, but Cash is quietly as valuable as anyone on the roster. We’ve seen him shine as an undisputed leader on plenty of occasions, but there’s something particularly impressive about his ability to produce within a role. Cash is a smart, strong, athletic guard with excellent toughness, defensive...

6’1 ’23 Kevon Vanderhorst (Team Curry) It’s difficult to single out just one player from this balanced Team Curry roster, but Vanderhorst was certainly among the more productive pieces in this showing. He’s a very smart, well-rounded floor general with vision, penetration ability, and perimeter shooting. Additionally, Vanderhorst is a scrappy on-ball defender with the necessary quickness and...
