Rankings Release: Movement in the Top 10

The spring travel season has come and gone, and while it went quickly, it certainly provided the time needed for prospects throughout New England to get noticed and improve their standing in our rankings.   This is abundantly clear within our updated Top 10, as eight prospects moved up or down at least one spot, while only two held firm in their original positions.   Below is a breakdown of each of the prospects in our Top 10, with an emphasis on what has stood out about their play this spring.   <ol class="wp-block-list"> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341304' first='Abdou' last='Toure']: The top ranked prospect in New England, Toure has had an impressive 12 months, with success at the high school level, on the travel circuit, and in international competition. Few prospects in this class can match his combination of athleticism, tough shot making, and versatility. He'll be among the most sought after prospects in the country this summer while playing for BABC on the 3SSB. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341292' first='Collins' last='Chidera Onyejiaka']: Checking in at #2, Chidera Onyejiaka has asserted himself as the top big man in the region. A standout at the recent Pangos All-American Camp, he's athletic, physically strong, and has terrific positional size. With what continues to be a rapidly improving feel for the game, he'll be a prospect that coaches follow closely this summer during his time with Team New England Basketball Club. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341363' first='Alex' last='Egbuonu']: Make a three spot jump into the Top 5, Egbuonu has been as consistent as any prospect in the region since the calendar flipped to 2025. A powerful wing with plus athleticism and a high level of skill, he just wrapped up an impressive showing at the adidas Eurocamp in Italy. A high major talent, the Top 100 recruit will look to continue to assert himself as one of the best players in the 3SSB this summer for BABC. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2325746' first='Amir' last='Jenkins']: No player has had a more meteoric rise over the last year and a half than Jenkins, who cracks our Top 5 after playing his way into Top 100 status nationally this spring. As competitive of a lead guard as there is in this class, he's terrific with the ball in his hands, knows how to run an offense, and takes pride on the defensive end of the floor. He'll run the show for BABC this summer alongside Toure and Egbuonu on the 3SSB circuit. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2638999' first='Lucas' last='Morillo']: After bursting onto the scene in New England last fall, Morillo has done nothing but continue to fill up the stat sheet while racking up wins. A jumbo guard that can operate as an on ball creator or off ball scorer, he scores, rebounds, facilitates, and defends at a high level. The high academic prospect has offers from some of the top academic basketball programs in the country and will have tons of coaches following his games this summer while playing for the City Rock (NY) in the EYBL. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2563037' first='Darien' last='Moore']: A consistent presence in the Top 10 since announcing he'd attend Brewster Academy last fall, Moore is an impressive two-way guard that plays with a good feel for the game and a high motor. An impressive athlete, he's an attacking guard that scores at multiple levels, defends either perimeter spot, and does the little things that don't always show up in a box score. An early commit for Seton Hall (February 2024), he's probably a little under the radar nationally because he's off the board, but opponents will take notice this summer as he'll help City Rocks (NY) win plenty of games in the EYBL. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341286' first='Sam' last='Fleming']: An incredibly versatile hybrid forward, Fleming has spent the spring recovering from an injury, but still profiles as one of the top prospects in New England. The 6'7" lefty can operate as the hub of an offense, takes advantage of mismatches in the paint and on the perimeter, and offers a lot of versatility on the defensive end of the floor. He was a major stock riser last summer and once he returns to the court for BABC, should be a name that quickly catches the attention of college coaches recruiting the 3SSB. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2465117' first='Ryan' last='Moesch']: Crafty, competitive, composed - these are just a few adjectives that have been used this spring to describe Moesch. A lead guard that seemingly has the ability to dictate the flow of a game with the ball in his hands, he's played his best basketball on the biggest stages, impressing with his competitive fire, willingness to take the big shot in big moments, and winning nature. A priority recruit at the mid-major level, he'll have a long line of suitors this summer as he looks to lead the Middlesex Magic to a UAA championship. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341352' first='Jaxson' last='Terry']: A big scoring guard that has turned himself into one of the best all-around guards in New England, Terry bounced back nicely this spring after a late winter injury. The 6'6" guard is one of the better catch and shoot threats in the region, but has really developed his ability to create offense off the bounce, while also proving to be a multi-positional perimeter defender. A priority recruit for some of New England's top college programs, he'll look to help Expressions win a title this summer on the EYBL. </li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2341288' first='Warren' last='Keel Jr.']: After helping lead Putnam Science Academy to a National Prep Championship this winter, Keel spent the spring playing a key role in the backcourt for the Mass Rivals. A composed and confident creator with the basketbal in his hands, he makes great reads in ball screens, does a nice job of limiting his turnovers, and is a consistent shooter from behind the arc. A Division I prospect, he'll be one of the better lead guards on the 3SSB circuit this summer as he looks to help lead his squad to a title. </li> </ol>   Keep an eye out this week as we continue to expand on our updated 2026 rankings, with thoughts on newcomers, risers, and more!
