It was our first good look at Castro. He’s a guard who can score the ball in different ways, 18.5 pg for his high school team. At 5’9 he’s a strong guard with good energy and plays through contact using hard dribbles to get to the basket. He has some efficiency to his game. He moves well with good foot speed to stay in front of ball handlers. We’ll see more. 3.3 GPA

It was our first look at the 6’7 post prospect. He’s long probably still growing with a frame to fill. He did well working the post area going after rebounds, and working to get post points around the rim. He got his fair share of offensive rebounds, he used good passing for outlets, and he hustled up of the court in transition. He’s on the Watch List. 3.86 GPA
T Conley got overshadowed by his twin on Saturday, on Sunday he played better. He came out aggressive looking to have impact. He knocked down a couple of 3’s early, did a good job of running and finishing shots in transition. He converted offensive rebounds into points. He hit the short jumper, got a couple of steals. 4.2 GPA.
Highlights
He’s made progress this spring and summer playing against quality competition. At 6’5 he’s a long wing prospect, who looks for his 3pt shot. He can hit the transition 3, spot up in the corners, he moves to set up his shot for open looks. He’s a good passer, with improving ball handling skills. He has the size to get his fair share of rebounds. 3.41 GPA.
Highlights
He has real shot making abilities behind the 3pt line. If he’s open, squared up, with good rhythm, we think it’s going in. He was one of the better shooters in the 2025 class at this event. He has work to do in other areas to bring balance to his game. He’ll be a contributor with his threat to knock down 3’s. 3.5 GPA.
Spring and summer is for getting better. Rease put in good work. He’s playing hard, giving good effort on the defensive side of the ball, his foot speed, and lateral movement are improved, he’ll take a charge. His improved handles allows him to get into the paint handle contact and finish. He can hit the open 3ptr. 3.0 GPA.
