This list includes prospects of various archetypes who will be eager to break out to College Coaches and begin to look for a home at the next level. Take a look at the prospects in this year's 2026 Class 5A Elite 6:   <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />    Beginning the 2026 Class 5A Super 6 is the #1 Overall Prospect in South Carolina's Junior Class, [player_tooltip player_id='1692243' first='Korie' last='Corbett']. Corbett plays for Ridge View High School which was the State Champion in 4A last year and is now in 5A Region 5. Although the Blazers are probably the deepest team in the State, it's Korie who is their star due to his physicality, skill, and mentality. He plays the game from the paint out with a knack for scoring around bigger bodies, strong rebounding on both ends, and a beautiful pull-up game at the elbows. Corbett holds offers from California, Charleston Southern, Nicholls State, Ole Miss, SC State, and Bethune Cookman.     Next up is [player_tooltip player_id='1482610' first='Mike' last='Jones'] of Indian Land High School in 5A Region 3. Jones is coming off a monster Sophomore Season in 2023-24 where he set a school record with 636 Points, averaged 24.5 Points Per Game on 52/43/87 shooting splits, and was named All-State in 4A. Mike is a true score-first Guard but is good as a primary ball-handler or spotting up off the ball. He has a great handle, a quick release on his jump shot, is extremely fast, and crafty in finishing around the rim. Jones holds offers from UNC Charlotte and Bethune Cookman.     [player_tooltip player_id='1679970' first='Yale' last='Davis'] is the second Blazer to make this list. He is a left-handed, two-way Point Guard who averaged 12 Points Per Game, 5 Assists Per Game, and 3 Steals Per Game to help lead Ridge View to a State Championship last year. Davis is a confident and capable scorer at all three levels on the floor. He has great foot speed, athleticism, handles in tight spaces, and footwork in the paint. Yale holds offers from Nicholls State, Jacksonville, and Francis Marion.     The run of Guards in the 2026 5A Super 6 continues with [player_tooltip player_id='1486213' first='BJ' last='Brown']. Brown plays for his father Bryan Brown at Sumter High School in 5A Region 5. BJ is one of the top pure shooters in South Carolina's Junior Class. He has a sweet left-handed stroke with size to shoot over most matchups at the High School level. Brown is at his best off the catch from behind the arc or pulling up in the mid-range, but he can also facilitate the offense and create opportunities in attacking the paint. He has a good handle - particularly with a crossover to get past defenders - and is athletic too. Brown holds an offer from Francis Marion University.     Next up is the lone transfer in this list, [player_tooltip player_id='1624061' first='Caden' last='Coleman']. Coleman joined Greenville High School this offseason which is one of the many schools that reclassified from 4A to 5A and they will start in 5A Region 1. Caden will be the primary ball-handler for his new team and should be expected to have an instant impact, but he is also experienced in playing off the ball due to his time with Upward Stars SE. Coleman is a terrific athlete, has positional size, and is one of the best mid-range shooters in the class. He keeps defenses off balance with his ability to attack the basket, pull up for a jump shot, or kick to an open teammate. Caden holds offers from Coastal Carolina and Western Carolina.     Rounding off the 2026 Class 5A Super 6 is Mauldin's [player_tooltip player_id='1259499' first='Nathan' last='Wilbourne']. The Mavs caught fire late last year making it to the Upper State Championship, giving its underclassmen like Wilbourne crucial big game experience. Nathan averaged 9.5 Points Per Game and 2.2 Assists Per Game in 2023-24. He has good length for a Guard, capable of seeing over defenses, shooting over contests, and finishing around tall rim protectors. Wilbourne is unselfish in attack mode and is a consistent shooter from behind the arc. Nathan holds offers from East Carolina and Coastal Carolina.
