Within the second version to my Cream Of The Crop Camp recap, I have a look at the front-court play from the occasion. A stable quantity of fellows which have a D1 likelihood had been within the constructing. Let’s begin with my first storyline.
Associated: Cream of the Crop Backcourt Standouts
Daniel Ogoemeka, Davion Adkins Went At Every Different/Ethan Sheats Eye Popping Stats
The second slate of video games had the 2 most imposing front-line prospects from the camp in 2026 Daniel Ogoemeka and Davion Adkins. It was a distinction of two kinds. Ogoemeka is 6-foot-11, sturdy and has lengthy arms. He was a monster inside, displaying emphatic dunks, big-time blocks and promising footwork together with his again to the basket recreation. He completed with 12 factors, six rebounds, and 4 blocks. Adkins, alternatively, has a extra excessive motor, finesse type method. Constructed and performs stylistically just like Ron Holland on the identical age, too. Adkins used his size to complete above the rim, appeared to gather each missed shot and flashed a few of his face-up and perimeter recreation. May find yourself being the very best within the 2026 class state-wise and the highest ahead as effectively if he continues to broaden his recreation and be productive with out having the ball in his palms. Adkins completed the sport with 18 factors and 12 rebounds.
Ethan Sheats, a ahead out of Denton Excessive Faculty was actually good. He’s 6-foot-8 and reveals versatility. Sheats was the fourth main scorer on the camp, averaging 21 ppg and led total in rebounds with 9 rpg. This was the toughest I noticed Sheats play shortly and I’ve been monitoring him since final October. Can rating from 15 toes out and likewise end across the basket. I like that he didn’t accept pictures from the perimeter and appeared to get simpler makes an attempt when the shot wasn’t falling. Shall be actually good later.
Xavier Younger, Terrell Jackson Headline 2028 Standouts
Looking into the longer term, I actually appreciated how Xavier Younger and Terrell Jackson carried out on the Cream Of The Crop. Xavier is about 6-foot-6 and may rating inside and outside. Seemed comfy taking pictures the three ball and defended effectively on the block in a single vs. one conditions. Actual upside and talent of changing into a face-up 4-man down the highway that’s a reliable inside-out scorer.Â
Jackson is about 6-foot-8 and has actually improved during the last yr. Nonetheless a uncooked prospect. which is ok for a present eighth grader, however now he rebounds out of his space, is extra comfy scoring or getting a clear look on the block and defensively he’s a shot deterrent.Â
Notables
Emiliano Menchaca, 2026 6’7 PF/SF – Frisco Memorial: A talented ahead that has satisfactory really feel for the sport for his age. Has good contact on floaters and may hit an open 3-pointer. Has misleading vertical pop as effectively. Averaged 14 ppg and 5 rpg on 45 p.c taking pictures.Â
Dawson Battie, 2027 6’7 SF – St. Marks: A giant wing prospect that’s the son of long-time NBA’er Tony Battie and 2024 excessive main prospect Dillon Battie. Dawson has a robust body, comfortably producing his personal look off the bounce and has a easy launch from three (75 p.c taking pictures from deep on the camp). Trying like one other excessive main prospect within the Battie family.Â
