Isaak Hayes Isaak Hayes 5’10” | PG North Crowley | 2027 State TX is the top 2027 pg in my opinion in Texas. He had a solid weekend at the War b4 The Storm Event dropping 19 pts against a talented Team Trae Young Squad. He had solid production against older competition. And he was able to play his game. He got his 3pt shot off quickly and efficiently 2-4 vs Triumph and 3 vs Trae Young. He was able to get past guards and get paint touches where he found teammates on the wing or finished at the basket or with floaters. He told me personally he wanted to prove he could play against top 16u talent.
Very strong when he was attacking the rim. Finished through contact numerous times. He’s also an elite level athlete had some very nice dunks and finishes above the rim. It seemed liked he was always around the basketball making plays, high motor energy guy who is active on the boards as well. Would love to seem him really develop a nice handle since he can guard the perimeter really well. 20 pt performance vs Triumph UA RISE

Had some extremely impressive feet in the pivot. Made a lot of nice pivots into tough touch shots around the rim. Then he showed he could take his man off the dribble or hit the outside 3. Very versatile player at his size. Played hard all weekend as well. I would love to see him be even more aggressive and have the ball in his hands because good things were happening through him.
Continues to show he’s a premier PG in this class. Was able to use his athleticism and strength and get to the rim or ump defenders off and shot his floater. He was able to evaluate on his jumpers easily thanks to a varsity season being the guy at his school. His strength and athleticism translated on the defensive end he made it hard for the opposing pg. I think once he adjusts to having talent around him and starts play making for others more he’s going to look really really good.
Beckham Black Beckham Black 6’1″ | PG Duncanville | 2027 State TX is a top 5 pg in Texas and I don’t think there will be a drop off. He’s already established his skill set this past season on varsity at Duncanville. He showed he was on a different level at the War B4 The Storm Event. He was never rushed and played at his own pace. He created for teammates and threw dimes all weekend. His physical attributes are increasing as well. he was dunking in warmup with ease and finishing through major contact. His jumper was money from outside as well.
I don’t see another kid in his class in Texas with his size and skill set. At 6’8 he separates himself from most of his peers. He’s made huge leaps and bounds since last summer. The athleticism and skillset has blossomed. He was above the rim at The War B4 The Storm and he was efficient from outside.
Marri Wickware Marri Wickware 6’4″ | SG Dallas Kimball | 2027 State TX is another prospect that has made huge leaps I the last year. The variety season at Kimball and the opportunity to play sooner than later has advanced his skillset and confidence combined with him growing and his body maturing a little more. He’s a big guard who doesn’t shy from contact. He has a good handle that he can use to get to the rim. And he’s a high flyer now, he made some nice dunks and caught some impressive lobs at the War b4 The Storm. Once he gets a solid jumper I see him being an elite talent.
Talented shifty guard who has that “it” first game of the weekend he broke down defenders and was able to explode to the rim and finish. All around great talent and a talented squad
