Yor was a player who stood out more than most. He’s a 6’3 guard who has a crazy quick first step and gets to where he wants on the floor. A plus athlete going towards the rim and in transition. His shooting mechanics are free of any flaws and he makes the three at a high clip. In the game we saw he had 24 points and made a difference on the defensive end. Yor looks like a great prospect in the making. He has a high ceiling for the college level and checks a lot of boxes. One of the higher upside prospects in the 2026 Nebraska class.
Trelly Akins
Trelly Akins
Akins projects really well in this 2027 class. A product of Millard North who has been one of the top programs in the state over recent years. He looks like one of their next up and coming prospects. A rangy 6’5 player who had 29 points in one game. He’s already rock solid on the defensive end of the floor. Signs are pointing up for Akins as he enters his sophomore season. A two-way wing with projectability and impact in multiple facets of the game.
Braylon Owens
Braylon Owens
Owens fills a number of roles on this Factory United 16u team. He’s one of their top forwards and someone that can play a number of spots on offense. At 6’5 he’s a smooth athlete that runs the floor hard and has some pop on second jumps. His length covers up shots on the defensive end. During the game we watched he was a key part of their overall success. Owens moves well without the ball and can earn easy buckets with his high energy level. A versatile Norfolk HS 2026 prospect.
Brady Nick
Brady Nick
Nick is a big-time floor spacer with solid size for a wing at 6’5. He has shot creation ability and does work with the ball in his hands. An overall high basketball IQ and understanding of how to play offense are some aspects of his game that stood out. A young player that knows how to use the mid-range and break down the defense. His scoring prowess was one of the major catalysts for this 16u team.
