Drake “DJ” Sandi | CG | 2026 | St. Thomas Aquinas | @DJSandi_
Sandi finished as a scoring leader on a solid STA Raiders basketball program while showing his ability to be a solid combo guard for the next level. The 6-2 sophomore riser is still growing into his frame but has displayed a high IQ and passing skills with the rock. He’s an underrated athletic combo piece that can play solid defense and be an offensive asset.
Travis Triplett Travis Triplett 6'9" | SF Carrollwood Day | 2026 State FL | F | 2026 | Carrollwood Day | @D1_trav2026
Triplett is another BOARD MAN who gets his on the glass while contributing a scoring bag. College ready frame at 6-8 and has plenty of time to add weight as he’s just a sophomore. Breaking down his game, he’s a confident player who can make it happen near the rim with size and effort or put the ball on the floor to take defenders to the basket. A long-framed prospect that can protect the rim as well.
Ethan Sabec Ethan Sabec 6'7" | SF Calvary Christian | 2026 State FL | G | 2026 | Calvary Christian | @EthanSabec2026
College coaches looking for a rising versatile 2026 G that can shoot lights out with a deep bag of skills, get eyes on Ethan Sabec Ethan Sabec 6'7" | SF Calvary Christian | 2026 State FL . This kid is fresh off an 18.5 ppg and 7.7 rebound season where he finished second on the team in scoring as a sophomore. With a 6-7 frame, he has truly put his name even more on the map with some productive performances this AAU period. Another high upside prospect that has a chance to lock in college offers.
Brandon Brazell Brandon Brazell 6'5" | SG Martin County | 2026 State FL | CG | 2026 | Martin County | @Brandon24skunk
Brazell is a lengthy and athletic 6-5 versatile guard who averaged 16.0 points with 7.8 rebounds per game for his high school last season. He’s made some noise in the off-season period to help raise his stock for college interest. Brazell is a solid shooter who can guard various positions and should see an uptick in interest.
Luke McCrimon | CG | 2026 | Osceola | @showtime_lukee
This kid is making it happen in the off-season period to develop his game after leading Osceola in scoring with 18.4 points per game last season. He deserves the recognition as he’s being slept on in the Central Florida area despite showing off a consistent scoring bag. The 6-1 combo guard has the spring and summer periods to get his frame right and get the Kowboys back to winning spirits.
Arcadian Davis | F | 2026 | Lennard | @arcadian_davis
2023 stats: 17.8 PPG – 10.6 rebounds – 1.9 blocks
Davis is an explosive going forward that’s growing into his game and body but man the athleticism is something to get eyes on. The lefty stands around 6-6 with plenty of time to add weight to his lengthy frame. Impressed with the season numbers and how he moves on film. Wouldn’t be surprised if he sees an uptick in college interest with more eyes on his game.
Frankie Sosa Jr | CG | 2026 | Norland | @frankisosajr
Sosa is a rising two-sport athlete in the South Florida area who recently transferred over to Miami Norland. He had a productive scoring output in his sophomore season with 19.8 points per game. With a 6-3 frame, Sosa has a lot of athletic versatility to offers the Vikings next season.
Terell James | CG | 2026 | Winter Springs | @terell_james10
James has made noise playing with FAA Kings in the off-season period. At 5-11, the 2026 riser is a smart guard with the ball in his hands who can provide solid defensive effort as well. A productive sophomore season saw James average 16.4 points per game. He’s doing what he can to develop his game and show he can make things happen at the next level.
