Koehler seems like he’s on the verge of something special. He’s coming off a great weekend in Indianapolis at The Stage. That weekend was highlighted by a 27 point explosion in a tight game where every bucket was needed. If he continues to play like that, Koehler could find himself ranked at the end pf the summer.
I tried to warn you all about the Tar Heels program before The Stage in Indy. I wasn’t lying, they have some ballers. James Wright James Wright 6’3″ | PF Summit Academy | 2023 State MI has been lights out this spring. He just seems to have that next level speed, athleticism and bounciness. Wright should have a lot of eyes on him every time he takes the floor.
Gillum will be running with the Midwest Stampede 2026 squad for the first time this spring and that could be a very exciting mix. Gillum is long and versatile as far as who he defends and what part of the floor he works off of. He’s a multi level scoring threat that can use his length inside but has 3 point range on his jumper as well.
Highlights
Jaylen Martin

BNB teams bring it every time on the floor, making Martin a perfect fit for their style. He’s a quick trigger guard that likes to build up speed and get downhill in a hurry. Martin is feeling his game offensively right now and has the potential to go off in Lansing this weekend. He’s definitely worth a watch.
Turner looks like he could catch some people by surprise this weekend. There is so much upside to this young man’s game. I saw him practice this week and there was a fire to his game. Turner was going hard to the basket and finishing very strong. He’s a versatile player that can play and defend bigger than his height.
