#66 Kayin Mitchell Kayin Mitchell 6'2" | CG Ridgeway | 2026 State TN (Ridgeway)
Upside guy. Kayin ran with P7 during AAU. Hard-charging guard with stunning bounce.
Courtney Smith preseason Kayin analysisThe addition of junior guard Kayin Mitchell Kayin Mitchell 6'2" | CG Ridgeway | 2026 State TN puts Ridgeway in a better offensive situation than it was a season ago. The Roadrunners won’t have to be solely reliant on returnees Brian Carter Jr. Brian Carter Jr. 6'6" | SG Ridgeway | 2024 State TN and Emanuel Allen Emanuel Allen 6'6" | C Ridgeway | 2024 State TN to carry the load. Mitchell, a 6-foot-0 combo guard, made shots from the perimeter on Wednesday. If his shot making ability can carry over into the regular season, Ridgeway will have a lot of scoring lanes to work with.
#67 Adrian Sevieri Adrian Sevieri 5'10" | PG Eagleville | 2026 State TN (Eagleville)
Adrian Sevieri Adrian Sevieri 5'10" | PG Eagleville | 2026 State TN was the Defensive MVP of the 2023 PrepHoopsTN Jv Camp. The guard plays adeptly laterally. Height could inhibit his guard ceiling. Adrian also plays baseball for Eagleville, 2023 State Champions.
#68 Joel Wyatt Joel Wyatt 6'5" | PF Webb Bell Buckle | 2026 State TN (Webb-Bell Buckle)
Unusually athletic nearing 6-foot-6. Wyatt will be a forward throughout high school with an modest chance to play the college wing. Shooting skill will be his limiting factor. Wyatt gets up and down the floor like a dream. He can be more consistently active. Last year he looked a bit lost on offense. To be fair he was a freshman on varsity behind a D1 center in Stephen Olowoniyi. Wyatt needs to develop his handle quite a lot.
#69 Jack Ferraris Jack Ferraris 6'3" | SG Bearden | 2026 State TN (Bearden)
Way back in his AAU season Jack Ferraris Jack Ferraris 6'3" | SG Bearden | 2026 State TN was one the best Tennessee Impact 15u guys. Last winter Ferraris was one of the best players on one of the best Freshmen Team in the state at Bearden.
Jack is a solid 6-foot-2 with a little basketball muscle development. He is a tough guard with the ability to score of set up teammates. The varsity Bearden team is so deep this year that Jack has not yet established himself in the squad.
#70 Seth Taber Seth Taber 6'3" | SG Montgomery Bell Academy | 2026 State TN (M.B.A.)
Perfect guard height. Hungry to score. Relentless for Stars 15u AAU in 2023 summer.
