Last year quite a few prospects walked away with offers, lets see who took advantage of their opportunity this year.
Justin Mack
Justin Mack
Mack was getting to that RIM! Quick with the ball, and doesn’t waste his dribbles. High-motor guard that crashes the boards out of nowhere. Consistently hit shots all camp. Guard that has vision that completes his athletic ability.

Chris went to work like grandma cooking for Sunday dinner. Wing player with long arms, and athletic ability that can be explosive when he jumps. Perfect example when Adlam drove baseline, rose above three defenders almost throwing it down. Learn that his whole game opens up when Adlam gets his rhythm going. Can hit outside jump-shots.
Well, Well, Well, Baltimore made a great first impression on Texas. The big guard can make good decisions going downhill. Team first guy, you couldn’t tell he was new to Texas the way he was cheering on his team. Plays strong in every aspect of his game. If you can’t jump, GET OUT OF HIS WAY. Any chance he gets to dunk the ball he will take the opportunity. Best part he is doing this at 6’7.
Jermaine Tindle

Tindle made his presence known defensively in the paint. Consistently altered shots at the rim; if he didn’t block his opponent’s shots. Mobile enough to guard on the perimeter. Anticipates opponents driving to the rim with great timing on blocked shots. Once he works on his handles, could be a good defender on the wing.
Catchings made it look easy at times during the drills, but you saw the translation the games started. Catchings finished at the rim through contact. Became a leader for his team during the games moving like a veteran varsity player. He used his IQ to make the game easy for himself and his teammates. Kept cutting to the basket, and making the correct read.

East was a man amongst boys in this camp. Stood out with the physicality he plays with in the post. Multiple efforts on the offensive boards, proving he knows how to use his power against weaker opponents. Established footwork in the post. Can spin off defenders with quickness, and spin towards the rim. Walked away with an offer with his performance.
