#45 Jarius Mattox 5’8 PG (Mickey Leland| Texas| 2024)
Small but has a big heart, he’s quick on the first step, and plays hard on both sides of the ball. Not to mention this kid got a strap, from all over the court his range is unlimited. His form is beautiful with a quick trigger. He’s also a great facilitator.
#2 Cameron Wagner 5’10 G (Mickey Leland| Texas| 2024)
Combo guard was quick on the first but also got the ball on the string. Moves his feet well on defense and communicates effectively with his teammates. He moves through traffic with his quick first step and can finish well around the rim with either hand.
#34 Jacobee Giles 6’2 F (Furr| Texas| 2024)
A versatile defender can switch and guard 1-5 anywhere on the floor. He’s quick and fast with long arms that disrupt the offense. He’s a great finisher around the rim and a team player. Great attitude, and never loses his composure at any point of the game.
#2 Dudley Celestine 6’3 G (Wheatley| Texas| 2025)
Lengthy with a huge upside to his game. Raw natural talent, he has a nice stroke from outside and can guard on the perimeter. Despite his small frame, he can hold his own, he can get downhill to play-make for his teammates or finish at the rim himself.
#1 Quentin Sammuels 6’3 G (Wheatley| Texas| 2025)
Great size for a guard and plus he has a pretty high IQ on the game. He’s a pass-first guy with an amazing upside that stands out on its own. He’s crafty when getting downhill and creates contact well to finish around the rim.
#2 Jalen Jackson 5’8 PG (C.E KING| Texas| 2024)
Rough and tough. A pitbull barking none stop in the front yard is how I would describe his game. This kid throws everything on the line just to win. He has a nice outside shot to go along with the outstanding defense he plays full court.
