He's recorded 4.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.1 blocks per game to showcase his abilities in the Panthers' frontcourt in 2024-25.

He's a prospect at 6-foot-8 who's accumulated 35 blocks through 11 appearances for the Lions in his sophomore season. As he puts together his game on both sides of the floor, look for him to emerge as quite the presence to know. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2772411"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67ac233635a85"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brutus is a sizeable name to keep an eye on on the Homeschool stage in the state of North Carolina.

He's an underrated presence to get to know in the 2027 class given his abilities around the rim. He's putting up 10.5 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per contest as a presence around the painted area for the Patriots.

Alongside [player_tooltip player_id='2399901' first='Evan' last='Gattis'], a high-scoring guard in the backcourt, Beamon has made a name for himself in the frontcourt with his length and frame. He's produced 10.1 points, 8.9 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game and put together six double-doubles in his sophomore season as a contributor on the varsity stage.
