He was fearless with the ball in his hands and even more fearless in setting the tone on the defensive end as an enforce and stopper as he led his squad to the 13U title. He’s an early name to know in the 2026 class.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1259500" first="Reid" last="Hipp"] | 6’2 Forward | Carolina Hoopsterz Gold</h5> <p>Hipp was a standout for his squad in the frontcourt as he used his size to his advantage all weekend long.

As he learns to be an even quicker threat defensively, look out.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1259504" first="Kingston" last="Little"] I 5’11 Forward | CBE 2026 Howell</h5> <p>Little is an emerging forward that uses his size well to battle on the boards and get points around the rim.

As he learns to play with player of his size, look for him to develop nicely in the class.</p> <h5>[player_tooltip player_id="1259506" first="Hunt" last="Murfee"] | 5’8 Guard I Winston 76ers 2026</h5> <p>Murfee was one of a few names that caught our eye due to his defense.
