2027 6’8 Segond Sompa (TN Travelers)
Sompa was a player I just happened to stumble upon, and further watching him over the week, he is certainly a prospect worth monitoring more and seeing how he develops. Standing around 6/7/6’8, Sompa is one that when you first look at him, you automatically think is one that plays the forward position; strong, physical frame, and good size. But watching him more, the intrigue with his game is how comfortable he can be from all levels, displaying athleticism off the bounce, operating around the basket and on the glass, and showing a perimeter game as well. Coming from the Congo and playing here in the US since December, Sompa gives you those flashes and wow moments that could make him a very intriguing prospect down the road.
2026 6’2 Cameron Blivens (Tennessee Tigers)
Blivens was a new name personally for me, but diving more into his background, he is one who certainly has caught the attention of many college programs already. Whether he is being recruited as a football prospect (already holds a ton of offers for football) or for basketball (holds multiple D1 offers), Blivens looks to be a sought-after prospect. On the court, the 6’2 guard was able to flourish with his ability to attack downhill, scoring in transition, finishing through defenders, and being assertive as an offensive weapon. He plays hard, competes on both ends, and can truly be a strong scoring impact on the floor for his team.
2026 6’5 Tatum Holmes (SEBA)
Holmes is another new name that I believe should garner attention from college coaches. There are plenty of factors to like about his game, whether it is his positional size at 6’5, his ability to be a playmaker or a scorer, or his overall feel/pace on the court. Holmes can operate with a smooth feel, using his size to get to his spots, finish strong inside, and knock down shots with confidence. He is comfortable in running the offense at times but can also play off the ball, being able to play and guard multiple positions. Holmes is able to do a bit of everything on the court, as he brings a well-rounded game to the court.
2026 6’8 Carson Dismang (STARS Basketball)
Dismang is a player we have actually watched before, but he could be a newer name to many others around the region. The 6’8 forward suits up for a very well-run program in Stars Basketball, and probably was the most consistent player throughout the weekend with his play. The big man was able to provide energy throughout on both sides of the ball, he does a nice job in establishing position down in the post and operating with touch, and competes hard on the glass. Though he may not be the biggest, Dismang understands how to work around defenders, finish well over his shoulder, and really can be a strong asset on the glass.
2027 6’4 Carter Williams (Future Prep)
Williams was a new name personally for me but the North Carolina prospect opened up a few eyes with his game that you had to like as a scout. Overall, you had to love his production for his team and overall impact. Whether it was on offense or defense, Williams found ways to make plays and fill up the statsheet. The 6’4 prospect was able to get downhill consistently throughout the weekend and attack the rim, finishing or getting to the line. He demonstrated his ability to play multiple positions, and his motor were quite impressive. What grabbed my attention was the energy he brought outside of scoring, whether it as being active in creating steals, altering shots, attacking the glass… Williams offered a lot to his team this entire weekend.
