The PrepHoops Circuit continues to showcase talent, especially in the Passion Region. Take a look at the 15U Gamechangers that stood out at Carolina Crossover. 

Dillon Galloway - 6’4 Wing/Forward - BigShots CPA 2025

Galloway was quite the gamechanger for Big Shots CPA 2025 with his size, frame and ability to operate on all three levels. He showed he could move without the ball and find openings as a shooter on the perimeter and threat in the paint with his post game. He utilized his size defensively as well and was quite the rebounder for his squad as they went 3-1 at Carolina Crossover.

Eli Griffin - 6’0 Guard - BigShots CPA 2025

Griffin was another impressive gamechanger with BigShots CPA 2025 as he showed he could play distributor and scorer, depending on opponent, with his versatile game. He made an impact on both ends of the floor, using his length on defense to create turnovers and did well at controlling the pace with his ability to knock down shots off the bounce and finish in traffic. He’s another name to watch alongside Dillon Galloway over at Brevard High. 

Chance Hendricks - 6’0 Guard - Georgia Ignites 2025

Hendricks earned gamechanger honors in the Georgia Ignites 2025 rotation for his ability to wreak havoc defensively and finish in the paint as a scoring threat. Time and time again he was responsible for creating steals and turning them into points or an assist off the fastbreak with his constant ball pressure on defense. In the halfcourt, he did well to operate off the bounce and knock down easy shots in the midrange and as a driver on the perimeter. As he shows his prowess on the perimeter, look for his name to grow in the 2025 class in Georgia.

Ahkee Mack - 6’1 Guard/Wing - Georgia Ignites 2025

Mack was another name with Georgia Ignites 2025 that stood out as a gamechanger, though his role was more on the offensive side that he stood out. He used his wiry 6-foot-1 frame to operate on all three levels as a threat with the ball in his hands. He showed he can knock down shots on the perimeter and put the ball on the floor and finish in traffic when given opportunities. He’s another Georgia prospect with upside in the 2025 class to keep an eye on after his squad went 3-1 at Carolina Crossover.

Tank Walker - 5’9 Point Guard - Metro Elite Basketball Club 2025

Walker was the first of a few names that stood out with Metro Elite Basketball Club 2025 as a gamechanger. He didn’t mind letting others do the scoring while he made his presence felt defensively and created turnovers. While they played some close battles, he was one defender who was constantly in the fray with a nose for the ball. He’s also quite the perimeter shooter to complement Noah Banks.

Noah Banks - 6’2 Guard/Wing - Metro Elite Basketball Club 2025

Banks was one of the top sharpshooting names on the weekend when it was all said and done at Carolina Crossover. He was a gamechanger after showing his ability to knock down shots with range on the perimeter and the added ability to put the ball on the floor and create off the bounce. He knocked down at least three 3-pointers in each game and showed he could use his length to create opportunities on the perimeter. 

Jaki Bell - 6’2 Wing/Forward - Metro Elite Basketball Club 2025

Bell was the primary defender in Metro Elite Basketball Club 2025 and a gamechanger with his ability to apply pressure defensively and turn things around when needed. He knew when to turn defense into offense and played an unselfish brand of basketball predicated on making good plays. He was constantly in plays when the game was on the line and making positive contributions in all facets of the game.

Amare Adams - 6’5 Forward/Center - Shot Caller Nation 2025

Adams was the top shot-blocker at Carolina Crossover when it was all said and done in the 15U division for Shot Caller Nation 2025. He flew around the floor on both ends of the floor, utilizing his 240-pound frame, as a presence in the paint on both ends as a gamechanger and showed he could finish around the rim in traffic and also created free-throw opportunities with his ability to draw attention. 

Caden Edmond - 6’3 Forward - Shot Caller Nation 2025

Edmond was quite the gamechanger for Shot Caller Nation 2025 as a dual forward threat. He was another prospect that played with a ton of energy as a paint presence, though as more of a rebounder and finisher around the rim. He showed he could step out and knock down shots on the perimeter with range as well, creating matchup problems in the process. He’ll be one to keep an eye on in the Passion Region.

Ismael Joseph - 5’10 Guard - Stampede 2025

Joseph is the first of a trio of gamechangers with Stampede 2025 to keep an eye on in the Passion Region. They play true to their name thanks to his ability to lead the way as a defender and scoring threat that can get downhill and finish in traffic and knock down shots when given openings. He’s an electric name to know that can create on all three levels and defend at a high level. 

Jarret Mauvais - 5’11 Guard/Wing - Stampede 2025

Mauvais is the biggest catalyst for Stampede 2025 and his gamechanging ways were missed in their final game as he went down with an early injury. His impact was felt though through their first three victories as a pressure defender, scoring threat and rim protector with his constant "nose for the ball" mentality. He was constantly making plays and creating havoc on defense to turn them into scoring opportunities for himself and others. 

Johnathan Merci - 6’1 Forward - Stampede 2025

Merci was the other enforcer for Stampede 2025 as he stepped up as a gamechanger that could operate at either forward spot. He showed he could defend on the perimeter and in the post then showed that he could create with and without the ball in his hands on offense as a scorer and rebounder. He was another option for them that was constantly scoring points off turnovers and finding success as a cleanup man on the glass.

Kendrick Johnson - 6’1 Guard - Underrated Athletes 2025

Johnson was the primary guard in the Underrated Athletes 2025 and he used it to showcase his playmaking ability as a gamechanger. He played an unselfish brand of basketball looking to move the ball in the offense and get things flowing while finding his own shots and opportunities to drive to the bucket and finish. He’s a name to watch in NC’s 2025 class.

Julien Johnson - 6’5 Forward/Center - Underrated Athletes 2025

Johnson is a prospect that stands out right away with his length at 6-foot-5 and he showed as a gamechanger that he can utilize his length to protect the rim and rebound the ball. He’s a raw prospect that runs the floor well and is mobile enough to guard multiple spots on the floor already. As he learns to use his length more, he’ll be a name to know soon enough in the state of North Carolina. 

Greg Murray - 6’0 Guard - Underrated Athletes 2025

Murray was quite the crafty combo guard in the Underrated Athletes 2025 backcourt as a gamechanger at Carolina Crossover. He showed he could operate with and without the ball in his hands as a three-level threat. He showed he could knock down shots on the perimeter and finish in the paint area when needed and was another playmaker that found others for buckets when needed.
