Time to see which of the elite stood above the rest on Saturday night! These 17 players made the most impact in our eyes in the games we evaluated.
PGs/Combos
Nyk Lewis (Gonzaga, DC – 2025)
Lewis has been one of the top scorers at the camp and that continued on Saturday night as he came out firing in the first game of the evening. Strong guard with plus athleticism is a lights out pull up shooter from distance that drained them in abundance. Such great acceleration and burst to the hoop. Gets after it defensively as well with active hands and trapping.
Jeremiah Fears (Sunrise Christian, KS – 2025)
Best we have seen Fears all week. The Illinois native is a combo guard that can really score it. He got it going with his speed and passing in the open floor. His passing, body control, and acceleration are impressive. Also had several steals and was always looking to make a play!
Jerry Easter (La Lumiere, IN – 2025)
Easter is one of the top combos in the Midwest. Well built guard is just rock solid across the board. Makes sound decisions with the ball in the half court and finishes in the paint with a nice soft touch finishing game.
Wings
DeMarco Johnson (SoCal Academy, CA – 2025)
Johnson went off in the first game. The athletic two guard from the west coast has a long and lanky frame. He knocked in threes, stopped and popped from mid-range, and was explosive as a transition finisher. The athleticism really shines through here.
Cameron Holmes (Millenium, AZ – 2026)
This lefty shooting guard could not miss as every time we looked over the southpaw was letting another one fly from distance that went down. He was lethal with his shooting from distance all night especially off the catch.
Isaiah Henry (Cannon School, NC – 2025)
Henry had it rolling in the game we watched as well as catching some of what he did in a previous game on the court next to us. The 6’3” 207 pound shooting guard is a pure scorer in the truest sense. He actually took really good shots and was efficient with his looks too as he was a true three level scorer that made threes off the catch, 15 footers, and got to the rim with his power/hesi game.
Jalen Haralson (Fishers, IN – 2025)
Haralson went up against McKenney in a battle of two of the premier 2025s in the Midwest. Haralson turned it up a notch in this one. The Indiana native is a small forward with point-forward ability. Strong frame with good athleticism and basketball instincts. Was aggressive getting downhill for soft touch finishes, posted up his opponent for scores, along with hitting jumpers from two and three. Plus passer as well that really sees the floor.
Trey McKenney (St. Mary’s, MI – 2025)
There is a lot to like with McKenney. The physically built two guard has one of the most lethal mid-range games in camp. That was evident in his game on Saturday as he hit them one after another.
Sebastian Williams-Adams (St. John’s, TX – 2025)
Another top performers mention for the Texas standout. He is such a high-motor wing that scored a ton in transition as he was always running the floor hard and looking for passes. Knocked in some pull up twos as well.
Chuck Love (Lincoln Northeast, NE – 2025)
Long and rangy two guard from Nebraska was excellent in this session. Big time shot maker that could not miss as he drained triples over and over again especially off the catch. Very projectable three and D wing.
Jaylen Harrell (St. Sebastian’s, MA – 2025)
Harrell had a strong showing in the final game of the evening. Power wing with skill (seems to be a theme this week) that shot it well from distance, had passing instincts, ran the floor, and a nice floater. Racked up the points.

Aleks Alston (Kenwood, IL – 2025)
The point-power forward from Illinois is playing a bit out of position having to check some fives, but you can just see the upside oozing even with top players all over every floor. At his size with his skill he is a big time contender for the top spot in Illinois’ 2025 class. The versatility was on full display with the way he took it off the defensive glass and consistently pushing or throwing great outlets to get the break started. Plus shooter off the catch with a clean stroke and had a sweet and-1.
Caleb Wilson (Holy Innocents, GA – 2025)
Wilson is considered by many a top 10 prospect nationally. Early in the week he hung out quite a bit on the perimeter, but Saturday night he was getting to the two things that will always be reliable for him. He ran the floor better than anyone else did for easy points and rebounded at a super high rate on both ends. Elite hops high-pointing rebounds in traffic and is super bouncy on the offensive glass for second chance points. He has face up skill as well, but these two will take him along way. Projectable big that will need to add strength.
Jaden Toombs (Dynamic Prep, TX – 2025)
Love watching this big bodied five man. He is a power post that has a great right handed hook shot and knows how to use his body to create space to get it off. Area rebounder and even hit a 12 foot jumper.
Christian Gurdak (Gonzaga, DC – 2025)
Five man that has broad shoulders and is very skilled. Little Kevin Love to his game with the way he rebounds, has touch in the paint, excellent footwork, and can really pass it. High percentage finisher in the paint.
Alier Maluk (Imani Christian, PA – 2025)
Maluk had the dunk of the night absolutely posterizing an opponent that tried to take a charge. He followed it up with another dunk. It was on from that point. The big man with a super long and thin body crashed the offensive glass with consistency and showed touch on a turnaround jumper and spot up three. Big night!
Nick Randall (Vashon, MO – 2025)
Probably the best night of the camp for Randall. Four man that played more within himself. Used his athleticism around the hoop for put backs and reverse finishes. Also hit a floater and stretched for a three.
