2027 6’11 Isaiah Hill (Indiana Elite) – Pike High
Hill is a name that you will be hearing a lot more about and there is a lot of upside/potential with this young man’s game. He quickly grabs your attention with his long 6’11 frame but when you watch his game, you see that he has a blossoming skillset and his impact can be felt in a variety of ways. Early on, Hill makes his name on the defensive end, as his length allows him to be an elite rim protector; he has great timing and goes after everything as well as being strong on the boards. Offensively, he runs the floor exceptionally well, finishes at the rim, and shows early touch.
2027 6’10 Darius Wabbington (Arizona Unity) – Sunnyslope HS
Another big man that I liked watching was Wabbington. The 6’10 prospect has a big frame but is also quite skilled with his game. He carves out space well, uses his body to his advantage, and competes on both sides of the court. Wabbington’s blend of size, feel and coordination, and overall skillset as a big can’t be denied, as he can be a force offensively around the basket but also battles on the defensive end. And that doesn’t mention his impact as a paint protector and a force on the glass. I’m eager to see how he continues to develop but should be a target for many schools down the road.
2027 6’3 Chase Branham (KC Run GMC) – Logan-Rogersville HS
There were plenty of guards to watch at the event, but Branham was one that I loved watching. This 6’3 point guard plays with such confidence, is such a competitor, and I loved his overall feel on the court. Branham has a swagger to his game and isn’t afraid of the spotlight, knocking down big shots from outside, being tough as a creator off the dribble and scoring, and has a tremendous feel in running the show and finding his teammates. He is one that I believe should garner a lot more attention.
2027 6’8 Moussa Kamissoko (PSA Cardinals) – Trinity-Pawling School
Kamissoko has a lot to offer with his game, but he is also a blossoming prospect that is just starting his journey as a prospect. The 6’8 prospect has a lot of intangibles in his game that get you excited about the future, as he checks the boxes of fluidity, versatility, and potential. Kamissoko has terrific body control and versatility, and he is comfortable operating from multiple levels. He scores well off the bounce, attacks the rim, is active on the glass for putbacks, and uses his length to finish well around the basket. Again, it seems like he is just starting his story and should be one to watch more.
2027 6’4 Dean Williams (Team Loaded VA) – Catholic High
Williams is one that we have talked about in the past and watching him at the event, he continues to grab my attention with what he provides, his toughness, and his willingness to make plays as well as compete. The 6’4 prospect has a good frame and did a great job in creating for himself, attacking the defense and finishing strong, knocking down shots inside and out, and just plays with a good motor. He wasn’t flashy but productive with his game, and believe he could be an underrated prospect in the region.
