Carson Cody, 6’3 G/W – Green Mountain Select 10th/11th + Blueprint Basketball Class of 2025 (BP BB: Manheim, PA Hoop Group Summer Final 7/15-7/16)
Carson has been getting a ton of run in with GMS, but I’ve got word he’ll be at Hoop Group Summer Final with Blueprint Basketball in Manheim, PA. Cody is a two-way player with a serious competitive edge. Carson is a dynamic playmaker on the offensive end with his 3-level scoring and knack for getting to the FT line. Plus, he defends multiple positions with his length and athleticism. Kid has great feel and a passion for the game.
Kyle Eaton Kyle Eaton 5'9" | PG Champlain Valley Union | 2024 New E , 5’9 G – Blueprint Basketball 12th Class of 2024 (Manheim, PA Hoop Group Summer Final 7/15-7/16)
With Kyle’s combination of scoring chops and clean facilitation, Eaton gets it done. He’s a scoring threat from deep and in the mid-range, plus, his craftiness in the second layer makes for savvy playmaking and the occasional finish. Moreover, he balances his attack with getting guys the ball in their spots and running the offense. Agile with nice anticipation, he’s a pest defensively too. Take note.
Tyler Bergmans Tyler Bergmans 6'2" | SG South Burlington | 2024 State New E , 6’3 G – Green Mountain Select 11th Class of 2024 (Fitchburg, MA Basketbull Summer Championships 7/14-7/16)
A rugged combo-guard, Tyler’s game is easy to appreciate. He facilitates with ease, moves well off the ball, and can get to the rim whenever he likes. Bergmans finishes with impressive efficiency at the rim with his crafty footwork; plus, his mid-range has blossomed and the confidence in his 3 improving. Defensively, Bergmans is tough. He uses his strength well, is anticipatory, and surprises with his work on the glass + protecting the rim. Dependable to say the least.
Deng Aguek, 6’2 G – VT Elite 10th Class of 2025 (AAU Nat. Fl. July 8-16, Las Vegas Big Time Tournament July 17-21)
With a crisp scoring touch and a smooth game, Deng makes it look effortless. Aguek’s 3-level scoring comes off of pogo-stick jumpers that he can get off the dribble or the catch. Additionally, as a combo-guard, he’s a natural moving off the ball and relocating/cutting into scoring position. A dynamic defender who can apply tough ball pressure and force TO’s, Aguek can turn up the offense with defense. Gotta love that.
Pascal Munezero, 5’9 G – Blueprint Basketball 8th Class of 2027 (Manheim, PA Hoop Group Summer Final 7/15-7/16)
An incoming 9th grader with a whole lot of game, Pascal is looking like one of the top 2027s in VT. Munezero is already a confident scorer at each level, and his finishing around the cup makes him look like a hooper beyond his years. Naturally, he demands a ton of defensive attention, and when they over-adjust, Munezero hurts teams off the pass. He’s a hustle defender with a ton of energy going both ways; keep tabs on Pascal.
