Jackson was probably the biggest player in camp, standing at 7’0. Now, there is no need for me to go into his dominance on the boards and on the defensive end of the floor as a rim protector. Outside of his dominance in the areas just mentioned, the intangibles and skills that Jackson showed were good footwork on the low block, vision and passing skills from the high post, an okay ability to handle in the open court, and a nice turn-around jump shot that was almost impossible to contest. Jackson will have to get stronger as he was pushed around a lot and, at times, didn’t fight back or offer any resistance.
Brennen Dooley (6’2/G/’25/Mountain View HS)
Brennen did a good job initiating the offense and being a floor general. He played like a coach on the floor and did a good job running the offense. He competed throughout camp and had a solid day.
Kamden Stone (5’11/G/’25/Centennial HS)

Kamden is a floor general who was really pushing pace throughout the day. He got into the lane quite often and fully displayed his floater game. He has end-to-end speed that kept defenders on their heels, and when he saw openings to the cup, he showed his burst off the bounce. He is explosive with the rock in his hands and is a good decision-maker when creating off-the-bounce.
Christian Cooper (5’10/G/’26/Johns Creek HS)

Christian is a lead guard who had an aggressive mindset from the first tip, which carried over to the last buzzer. He pushed the tempo and had his team out in transition every time he got the rock. His blow-by-speed helped him get into the heart of the defense and helped him to draw fouls in which he found himself getting to the lines and converting And-1 buckets. He is a young guard who thrived in transition.
Emmanuel Jones Emmanuel Jones 5'9" | PG Wheeler | 2026 GA (5’9/G/’26/Wheeler HS)
Emmanuel brought energy and effort to the floor and really had a good day on the defensive end of the floor. He was very aggressive with his on-ball defense and made ball-handlers uncomfortable. He is young and still developing, and it was evident that his defense is ahead of his offense.
Jules Morton (5’5/G/’26/Lakeside HS)

Jules is a small lead guard who was impactful on the defensive end of the floor. It was not his offense that caught my eye, but the things he did on the defensive end that do not show up in the stat sheet but contribute to winning. He was vocal, aggressive with his on-ball pressure and a good help-side presence.
Cam’Ron Beauford Cam’Ron Beauford 5'11" | PG Cass | 2026 GA (5’11/G/’26/Cass HS)
Cam was at his best on the defensive end of the floor. He was aggressive with his on-ball defense, making ball-handlers work for their real estate. He was energetic, and it was contagious amongst his teammates. Cam is headed into his sophomore season and needs to continue developing his offensive toolkit.
Ben Uhde Ben Uhde 6'3" | SG Johns Creek | 2026 GA (6’3/G/’26/Johns Creek HS)

Ben shot the ball exceptionally well from deep and was a player that defenders must always know his whereabouts. During the games, I saw him compete; he was a fierce competitor on both ends of the floor. He was a good rebounding guard and was very active on the glass. Ben is getting ready for his sophomore year and should have a solid season in which he contributes with his shooting and effort.
Samuel Eno Samuel Eno 6'4" | SG Chapel Hill | 2024 GA (6’4/G|F/’24/Chapel Hill HS)

Sam has good positional size and a good physical profile. He is a physical wing player who spent a lot of time battling inside and on the glass. He was aggressive off the bounce and was getting downhill as he accelerated quickly in the open court after boarding and starting the break. He had a very business-like approach throughout the day as he played tough, was a highly active rebounder, and was a willing defender. Again, he has the physical measurables and has to continue honing his skillset.
