Brennan Malone Brennan Malone 6’6″ | PF Lawton MacArthur | 2026 State OK put on a show as an athletic big man. Standing at around 6’4, athletic, and having a big wing span, he utilized all of it to dominate the interior. Whenever the defense would drive to the basket, no matter if it was in half-court offense or transition, he was sending the ball back or out of bounds. There was one play that he was at half-court and swatted a layup in transition when the guy on offense was at the three-point line. He was a rebounding machine, grabbing one rebound after another. Several of the offensive rebounds resulted in second chance points with him dunking it or laying it back in. He showed the ability to drive and finish at the basket on occasion, but majority of his points came off of offensive rebounds or him getting good positioning to score over the smaller defender. He came away with a couple of steals during the game. His impact was felt on both ends of the court, as he lead his team to a 4-0 record.
Gmarrion Scott Gmarrion Scott 6’4″ | PF Calvary Baptist | 2026 State LA played extremely well, as he helped his team go 3-1 during the weekend. He did a little bit of everything. Standing at 6’5, this helped him make an impact on the inside. Utilizing this, he scored inside time and time again, both with putbacks off of his offensive rebounds and getting good positioning. He rebounded the ball well and made an impact on defense. His impact on defense consisted of him having a couple of steal, multiple blocks, and playing good interior defense. There was one play that he got a steal and threw a good bounce pass for an assist. It was a great weekend for him, as this brief game log is an outline for what he was doing on a regular basis.
Carter Hainrihar Carter Hainrihar 5’8″ | PG Piedmont | 2026 OK played so well that he is one of two players to make any of the tournament teams with his team having a losing record. Jarmile Robinson’s team was 2-2 and Carter Hainrihar Carter Hainrihar 5’8″ | PG Piedmont | 2026 OK ‘s team went 1-3. He was making the right plays and shooting the ball well, but did not have enough help around him during the event for them to win more. Against JEB Elite, who went 4-0 during the tournament, he scored extremely well. Having 11 points at halftime, he scored regularly inside, despite only being 5’10. He was efficient from the free throw line and grabbed a couple of rebounds. He made some good passes with drive and kicks, but the shots were not falling for his teammates. On defense, he had a block in transition and was playing good perimeter defense. His team ended up losing by two points, but he gave JEB Elite all they could handle. It was impressive to see him keep his own against a good defense.

Terry Mack helped lead his team to a 4-0 record. I only got to watch him in one game, but he looked impressive. He was making a living from mid-range, pulling up and nailing jumpers left and right. There was one play that he nailed a mid-range jumper with the foul, making the free throw for an and-one. He scored at the rim a little, but his go-to was mid-range. He played great defense, harassing the ball-handler and forcing turnovers. He was getting it done on both ends of the court.
Brady Robertson Brady Robertson 5’11” | SG Mustang | 2026 OK was a top three shooter at the event, putting on one of the best shooting performances that I saw for any 15U game. Nailing one three pointer after another, he finished the game with five three-pointers. Three of them came from the corner. His offensive game expanded beyond that, as he finished inside and knocked down a pair of free throws. He played solid defense and rebounded well for a guard, finishing with three rebounds (that I recorded). His shooting was impactful enough to help his team go 4-0 during the event.
