Hung out on the third annual TCU Elite Camp which consists of a number of the greatest gamers the state has to supply from the 2025-2027 class. The primary version of my recap talks concerning the 2026 standouts. Let’s dive in!
2026 Class Actually Stood Out
We didn’t see most of the excessive profile names within the 2025 class on this camp however for 2026, an ample quantity of the upper finish expertise was there. Seven Spurlock is a 6’5-6’6 lead guard that performs with a variety of poise. Plus passer, makes use of power to get to spots and has improved as a shooter. Caught the attention of the employees together with his play this weekend. Contending as the highest participant in that class state-wise.
Dakari Spear is also in that dialog and he’s very proficient. A combo guard with a artful deal with. Modifications speeds nicely, a strong shooter with clear pull-up recreation. Excessive upside with the playmaking, too. Recreation comes simple to Spear.Â
At present the highest prospect statewide, Trent Perry made eye-popping performs. Freakish athlete that sports activities a close to 7-foot wingspan at 6-foot-4. Will get downhill, finishes vs. measurement and has a variety of upside of turning into a defensive play-maker. I like seeing Perry on the ball and trying to take extra exterior pictures. Can inform he’s been engaged on it and albeit not being a reliable shooter, there was progress together with his capturing.Â
Can’t overlook about Alex Barther both as he joins the convo. A 6-foot-6 guard that has made strides in his recreation. Has good positional measurement, a scorer with good contact on his pull-up jumpers and might change and be strong on the defensive finish. Deal with and determination making has vastly improved over the previous yr. Might be very fascinating to see the place he’s as a senior.Â
2026 Notables
Trae Nunn, 6’4 Wing – Waxahachie: Physique seems to be good and has shed some weight. A flexible shooter that may join on the transfer, off the catch and off the bounce when attacking closeouts. Actually like the expansion and dedication he’s made to improvement.Â
Ethan Sheats, 6’8 PF – Denton: A 4-man with good measurement and will grow to be an enormous wing down the street. Succesful shooter from deep, driver to the rim and performed with an excellent motor, particularly on the glass. Excessive upside man that has methods to go however making progress.Â
Davion Adkins, 6’8 PF – Oak Cliff Religion Household: Adkins was strong. I’ve seen him play higher however it was a guard heavy camp, so touches inside didn’t come on the quantity I truthfully would’ve most popular. Regardless, a lefty ahead that has made headway in increasing his recreation. Athletic, protects the rim nicely as a help-side shot blocker and offensively a powerful put-back candidate, lob menace and catch-n-shoot man from 15 toes out.Â
Daniel Ogoemeka, 6’11 C – WT White: Didn’t have his greatest day, both, however being 6-foot-11 with lengthy arms stands out. He blocked a number of pictures every recreation, finishes above the rim and has promising contact across the rim.Â
Carter Chism, 6’1 PG – Mt. Nice: Artful scoring guard that has good contact on floaters and runners. His brother Payton, that’s at Collin County CC, is extra of a pure level that’s a table-setter/supervisor that may actually defend, however Carter seems to be extra to attain the ball, geared up with ample mid-range pull-up, and has a variety of creativity with the deal with. Ought to devour a bigger function this season at Mt. Nice and cause them to the playoffs.Â
Silas Rodriguez, 6’3 SG – Denton Guyer: A reliable shot-maker from deep, Silas performed inside his strengths and appeared good doing it. Really feel for the sport, enough positional measurement and deep vary capturing was displayed.Â
Xavier Inexperienced, 5’9 PG – The Colony: Dakari Spear backcourt mate at The Colony strung collectively three strong video games. Fast guard that obtained paint touches. He could not have ideally suited peak however he’s shifty, places strain on the protection and might rating it in bunches.Â
