Continue ReadingThe Throne is one of the final stops of the high school season. Taking place at American Dream in New Jersey from Wednesday to Saturday and featuring 16 of the top programs in the country, Prep Hoops takes a look at a few underclassmen wings & Forwards who could take advantage of the big stage:
Corbett was recently offered by Ole Miss and is currently trending as a high upside wing. If Ridge View is going to go on a run, it will be a mixture of Corbett and the rest of the perimeter to get things done.
The most highly rated player on this list, Wadley has had a monster sophomore season. The 6-foot-5 wing can create his own shot off the dribble and is one of the better shooters in the country in 2026 overall.
The 6-foot-6 swingman has the tools to be a high level player and finds a way to impact the game regardless if he’s scoring or not. He will likely draw the defensive assignment for the best wing in each game they play in NJ. First up is a tough Columbus team that features the Boozer and Richardson brothers, expect White to spend time guarding a majority of them.
On a team that features plenty of upperclassmen talent on the perimeter as well as big man Marcus Jackson, Allmond has carved out a role for the Judges and provides them with an offensive punch.
The physically imposing center turned in a big sophomore campaign and looks every bit like a power-5 level recruit early in his career. He will have to anchor the Don Bosco defense and will face an athletic Bishop O’Connell team that will have to find an answer for him on the interior.
The skilled 6-foot-10 forward has gotten stronger and more coordinated since enrolling at Oak Ridge this fall. Now he will get the chance to showcase his improved game to the country in New Jersey.
