‘Top Prospects’
6’7 Small Forward 2026 Daniel Briscoe | Belton HS DJ holds the keys to his Car heading Into the Season! Has a College Ready Body, Scores it at all 3 Levels, and Could Play His Way Onto D1 Boards if he gets off to a Great Start and Consistently Produces on Both Ends. Listed by all the College Coaches on Staff In the West TX Camp as the Prospect with the Most Physical Talent & Highest Ceiling. However, DJ’s Recruitment and Level of Recruitment will Depend on How Much He Impacts Games without the Ball in his Hands this Year. No doubt a D1 Level Talent that will have the Ball in His Hands and Opportunity to Play Way Into a D1 Offer! Stay Locked In DJ for Longer Stretches and Lead Shoemaker Not Just In Scoring But In All Facets of the Game And Your Recruitment Will Take Care of Itself Projected Levels: NCAA D2+ / LM D1
6’6 Stretch 4 2026 Braylon Peters | CC Flour Bluff Strong Versatile Playmaker That Can Guard Multiple Positions on D & Play Multiple Positions on the Offensive End of the Floor. Was at his Best When He Was in Attack Mode Getting Downhill and Making Plays in the Paint. Has the Physical Strength and Instincts to be an Elite Rebounder from the Guard Position and That Will Not Only Elevate His Game but Increase His Level of Interest. When He Pursued Rebounds He Looked Like a Scholarship Level Wing With the Ability To Finish Through Contact After Securing Offensive Boards. He Has Good Shot Mechanics on his Perimeter 3 and Knocked Down Timely 3’s to keep the Defensive Honest & Open Up Driving Lanes. Just Stay In Attack Mode Myles and Stay Consistent On The Glass And You Will Draw Scholarship Level Interest Heading Into the Spring Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / NAIA
6’3 Shooting Guard 2026 Mason Lopez | PSJA North Tookie Just Knows How To Play The Game. Has a High Basketball IQ, Scores It In a Variety of Ways And Plays with a Healthy Chip and Confidence that You Want in a Point Guard. As the Camp Got Tougher, Tookie Showed Me Another Level Defensively That was hard to truly Assess in the Select Tourneys I’ve Evaluated him in this Summer. Don’t Leave That In Abilene Tookie, Take It Back to Lubbock and Be the Best on Both Sides of the Ball and You Will Without a Doubt Head Into the Spring With Scholarship Level Options. Under Ranked And Underrated College Ready PG Set To Do Big Things This Year. Keep Growing Your Game As Your Best is Yet To Come… Projected Levels: NAIA+ / NCAA D2
6’3 Playmaker Aydin Wilder-Bey | Lajoya HS Listed as the ‘Top Prospect’ In the WTX Camp with the Highest Motor and Possibly the Best Defender in the Gym on Sunday. Defense is 100% Mindset and Ja’dyn Has the Speed to go along with the ‘Mindset’ it takes to Play with Sustained Effort on the Defensive End. Would be a Great Fit in a Program that Looks to Turn Defense Into Offense, Extends their Pressure and Pushes It In Transition. The Uncommon Approach Either Showcases Traits or Exposes Traits Outside of Talent That MATTER When It Comes to Gaining Exposure. Ja’dyn Stood Out for the Right Reasons, Attacked The Day, Defended at a Scholarship Level, and Competed from Start to Finish to End Up on ‘Top’ In The WTX Camp. Keep Working On Your Perimeter Shot When No One Is Watching Ja’dyn and Keep Being Elite at Your Ticket (Defense) To the Next Level And Interest will Turn to an Offer When It’s All Said and Done! Projected Levels: JUCO / NAIA (Programs That Extend There Defensive Pressure Get Ja’dyn On Your Radar)
6’3 Combo Guard Muhammad Sheath | Sharyland Pioneer High Academic, High Character, High IQ Small Forward That I Can See Ending Up With Several Ivy League Type Options. Extremely Coachable Player That is Returning To Stony Point as the Team Captain, And Brings All the Intangibles to a Roster That You Look for These Days When Researching HS Players Ability to Make The Transition. Has Great Hands, Soft Touch, Rebounds Well, and When He Was Pinning Hard Down Low He Was a Much Tougher Matchup! Be Nice Off the Court Big Devin, and Be The ‘MAN’ on the Glass and In The Paint And Your Recruitment Will Increase Quickly. Regardless, Whatever Program Gets Devin will Be Getting a Player That Will Get Better Each Year, Improve Your Team Culture Immediately, and Do What You Need Him To Do To Win Games. With Today’s Problems, Devin is a Breath of Fresh Air… Projected Levels: High Academic Ivy League Type Prospect (Majoring In Aerospace Engineering)
6’2 Combo Guard 2027 Deandre Duncan | Samuel Clemens HS 3 & D Wing That is a Knock Down Shooter In Catch and Shoot Situations, Pursues Boards from the Perimeter, And Continues To Get Better Defensively Which Will Only Help His Cause Moving Forward. Similar To ‘Top Prospects’ That Attended Multiple Camps Last Year And Turned D3+ Options in the Fall To NAIA/D2 Offers In The Spring, I Can See Elijah Following that Trend With How Much his Game Continues To Grow. Scholarship Level Shooter With Size That is Heading Into His Sr Season Playing at a Much Higher Level. Stay Tuned and Track This Kid’s Progress as he’s Set to Do Big Things this Year at Monterey. Projected Levels: NAIA / NCAA D2 Upside (Could Play His Way Onto D2 Boards By Midseason)
5’11 Point Guard 2027 Jeremiah Gomez | Edinburg North 3 & D Wing That is a Knock Down Shooter In Catch and Shoot Situations, Pursues Boards from the Perimeter, And Continues To Get Better Defensively Which Will Only Help His Cause Moving Forward. Similar To ‘Top Prospects’ That Attended Multiple Camps Last Year And Turned D3+ Options in the Fall To NAIA/D2 Offers In The Spring, I Can See Elijah Following that Trend With How Much his Game Continues To Grow. Scholarship Level Shooter With Size That is Heading Into His Sr Season Playing at a Much Higher Level. Stay Tuned and Track This Kid’s Progress as he’s Set to Do Big Things this Year at Monterey. Projected Levels: NAIA / NCAA D2 Upside (Could Play His Way Onto D2 Boards By Midseason)
‘NOTABLES’
6’7 Forward 2027 Bradley Rivera | Robert Vela HS Intriguing Big Man and Selected Invite after a Credible Resource Recommended Jesse as a Local WTX Talent Getting Overlooked. I’m Glad Jesse Registered for the Camp as there is No Doubt This Kid Can Play Small College Ball as a Stretch 4. Has a Solid Skill Set out of the HP, Made Several Winning Plays Off the Ball Defensively By Rotating and Altering or Blocking Shots In Help D Situations, and Does a Good Job on the Glass at Getting 50/50 Balls and 2nd Shots for his Team. Small Town-Big Man Worth Getting On Your List of Recruits To Watch In 2025-2026. If You Set a Lot of Ball Screens And Run Some High Low Action In the HC Find Some Film on Big Jesse He’s a FIT Projected Levels: D2 JUCO / NCAA D3+
5’10 Combo Guard 2026 Brody Determan | SGA Kingsville Strong Physical Tweener that is a Deceptive Athlete, Finishes Above The Rim In The Paint, and has all the Physical Tools and Talent You Look for In Potential Recruits. Moving Forward, Payton Must Show Sustained Effort for Longer Stretches And He Could Be a Big Time Sleeper That Puts Up Big Numbers This Year At Abilene High. When Engaged He Looks Like a Scholarship Level Wing and D1 Level Athlete. The Talent is There and the Ball is in his Court To End Up With Options at the End of the Season Once He Realizes How Good He Can Truly Be! Had Moments Throughout The Camp, But When The ‘Top Prospect’ Title Game Tipped Off You Could See How Good This Kid Truly Is! That’s When He Went All In And Looked Like One of the Best if Not the Best Player on the Floor. Don’t Wait Payton for good things to happen, make them happen and your Goal of Playing College Bal will become a Reality… Projected Levels: JUCO / NCAA D3+ (Could Move Onto NAIA/D2 Boards If He Plays To His Maximum Potential)
6’1 Shooting Guard 2026 Pierce Davis | John Paul II (Dallas) Versatile Guard That Finishes In Transition, Excels In the Open Court When the Game Speeds Up and Does a Great Job at Changing Speeds In the HC To Get By The First Line Defender And Make Plays off the Bounce. Moving Forward, Javari Being a Senior Must Stay and Play in Attack Mode On Both Ends of the Floor Cause the Talent & Athleticism Is there To Make a Much Bigger Impact this Year. Right Now Takes Possessions Off or Defers When He Has Opportunities to Make a Play Whether It Be on Offense or Defense. Has Everything You Look for In College Level Defenders and is Tough To Stop When Getting Downhill On Offense, Now Turn It Up a Notch for Longer Stretches Vari and Big Things Are Ahead. 2026 Sleeper To Track This Season In an Under Recruited West TX Region, could be a Late Steal for Programs that Do Their Research Early! Projected Levels: D2 JUCO / NAIA
6’1 Combo Guard 2028 De’Angelo Durosier | Founders Charter Academy Jzack continues to draw Interest from College Coaches working UCExposure Camps with his Consistent Effort, Communication & College Level Leadership Traits That PGs Must Bring to the Court to Go from Elite Varsity Level Player to College Recruit. You can’t fake toughness and Jzackery is “TOUGH” One Coach on Staff asked is that kid like this all the time? And my Response was this is his 4th Camp along with Evaluating him in the TABC Showcase and He Gives 110 Every Single Time... I would be more shocked if he didn’t Play Hard or Wasn’t Vocal at this Point. Every Single Coach That Reaches out about Players and asks Is he ‘Tough’ I can say heading into his Sr Season that YES this kid is Tough. Outside of bringing the ‘Will’ to Win to the Floor, Jzack does a Great Job of Creating Space to Get His Shot off over Bigger Guards, has a quick first step to get by first Line Defenders and Stays and Plays In Attack Mode. The Faster the Pace the Better He Looks so would be a Great FIT in and UpTempo System. Projected Levels: Top Ranked NCAA D3+ / NAIA
