There were many standouts throughout the event, and plenty of offers were thrown around as well. Here’s a look at some of the 2026 standouts from the Virginia schools in attendance.
Jordan Smith | 6’3” CG | Paul VI
If there’s one player that came away leaving people in awe of how good he’s going to be, it was Smith who was arguably PVI’s most productive and efficient player as just a rising sophomore on a team chock full of high major talent. The 6’3” combo guard did a little bit of everything as he showed his ability to put it on the deck and make plays for others, he showed his athleticism as a finisher and a defender and he scored the ball from all over the floor efficiently. He finished the event averaging 12.8 points on 71% shooting from the field, 8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.5 blocks per game.
Anthony Brown Anthony Brown 6'1" | PG Paul VI | 2026 State VA | 6’0” PG | Paul VI
Brown didn’t get a lot of action as a freshman last year, but he did show a lot of potential when he got minutes and at DMV Live he showed it wasn’t just a fluke. The strong lead guard handled pressures well and showed his ability to change speeds and touch the paint, he shot the ball well and finished well around the basket and he made great decisions with the ball in his hands. He finished the event averaging 9.8 points on 60% shooting from the field and 2.8 assists in 12.5 minutes per game.
Marcus Hancock Marcus Hancock 6'3" | SG John Paul The Great | 2026 State VA | 6’2” WG | John Paul the Great
Hancock showed throughout the weekend that he’s one of the best shooters in the state regardless of class, as he lit it up from deep in every single game they played. He moves very well off the ball to get open and sets his feet quickly, he has effortless range and very good form and he is extremely consistent from deep both off the catch and off the bounce. He finished the event averaging 16 points per game, and he made 18 threes in four game at a 54.5% clip from deep.
Silas Devonish Silas Devonish 5'9" | PG Bishop Ireton | 2026 State VA | 5’10” PG | Bishop Ireton
Devonish has shown early in his career that he’s a big time scoring guard who can fill it up in a lot of different ways, which he did throughout the event while also being a good distributor as well. He has great speed in the open floor and a lightning quick first step, he can stop on a dime and hit tough pull-ups, he can knock it down from deep and he puts a lot of pressure on the defense. He finished the event averaging 16.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game.
Ripp Kodi Ripp Kodi 6'5" | PF Bishop Ireton | 2026 State VA | 6’6” PF | Bishop Ireton
While Kodi didn’t put up huge numbers throughout the event, he did show what looks like continued growth and development while playing with a very good motor. The 6’6” forward has long arms and is very mobile so he can get up and down, he’s a big time rim protector and he is starting to develop ball skills as well. He finished the event averaging 5.5 points on 58% shooting and 1.5 blocks per game.
Adam Oumiddoch Adam Oumiddoch 6'4" | SG Bishop O'Connell | 2026 VA | 6’5” WG | Bishop O’Connell
Oummidoch was impressive as a freshman last season playing big minutes and putting up big numbers, and he’s arguably their most gifted scorer who can create shots whenever he wants. He’s a big guard who gets downhill and finishes well through contact, he has improved in his range and ability to knock down shots from deep and stays in attack mode and looks for his shot regularly. He finished the event averaging 13 points and 3.5 assists per game.
