Teams that Impressed 2026 Part 2

The Class of 2026 is oozing with talent all over the country as a lot of the schools below have multiple players with D1 offers already. Do not be surprised when these names become household names as Prep Hoops Next saw them first.

Expressions Elite || Massachussets ||

This team has so many versatile players on the roster AJ Dybansta is a dude as he has some major athleticism. He is an all business type of player as he plays with fire to him. Nice pull-up game and this kid attacks the rim with force. Evan Mitchner is a super tough guard that has speed and all-around skill as he gets everyone involved. Jaxon Terry another player that is a glue guy that is starting to rise as he develops.

City Rocks || New York ||

City Rocks is ready to put NY back on the map as they have some dudes that can play. Jalen Grant is a smooth very skilled guard that plays with passion on both ends of the floor. Attacks very well and he has a filthy jumper. Great handle as that in and out dribble really sets the tone for him getting in the paint and to the rim. Richard Rosa is another play maker on this squad who van create for others and himself.

Jet Academy Stars || Georgia ||

Solid squad and they are sometimes playing at an unreal pace as they have a guard that looks like he is shot out of a cannon at times in Cortez Redding. This kid has some speed to his game and he is ultra fast with the ball in his hands and he uses a variety of finishing moves. Kayden Allen is a big time difference maker that gets down hill in a hurry that helps with tempo. He is a three-level scorer and only possesses the skills and drive to get better.

MAC Irving Fire || Illinois ||

Jamson Coulter is a strong guard at this level already who is built for a grind it out type of game as his style is very elite as he can shoot from deep and quiet people down but also get to the rim and bounce off of defenders as he absorbs contact. Shifty guards littered all over the floor that get by defenders and a lot of players ready to make tough buckets. Noah Mister is another hybrid player that has vision, scoring ability from all over the floor. General out there on the floor directing traffic and getting what is given rather than forcing is a big plus to his game. Tim Winkler III is a quality big that does a lot of the dirty work. This really good team has a lot of players out there playing their role which allows them to shine at the same time.
