Player to Watch:
Jayden Marr Jayden Marr 6'2" | SG Green County | 2025 State KY – Marr is a nice player who is capable of scoring or facilitating for others. He’s also a really good distance runner and that could be his path in college but I think Jayden can play college basketball in the right situation. He averaged 19 points per game in Louisville during the live period.
X Factor:
Daishawn Curry Daishawn Curry 5'11" | SG Union County | 2026 State KY – This roster is riddled with players from Union County and Dawson Springs and Curry is actually playing up a grade level on 16u. Daishawn averaged 15 points per game at the Grassroots Showcase in Louisville.
New Name:
Keaton Hughes Keaton Hughes 6'7" | C Owensboro | 2025 State KY – Any big kid is going to be of interest and Keaton is averaging 10 points and 7 rebounds per game in AAU this season. At the Grassroots Showcase in Louisville, Hughes averaged 16 points and 10 rebounds per game for the Outlawz.
