<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Khamillo Wells | Guard | Marist | 2026</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Disciplined and vocal two-way player who stood out most prominently for playing both on and off the ball with equal effectiveness. A well-schooled defender, and while not the most fleet-footed guy there, was aggressive on the penetration and finished well. Fits in perfectly with Marist teams of old, even if they're undergoing a coaching change there this month. A stout frame and good size around 6-foot-3, he's the kind of guy who, at the June live periods, will grab eyeballs with his steady and efficient play.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Zaylen Shealer | Guard | Hart County | 2026 (pictured at top)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Speedy with impressive hops for an under 6-footer, the height mattered little as he went hard at the glass and was the day's top hustler. Terrific on-ball defender with the kind of lateral quickness that is God-given, that alone made him attractive, but his poise was evident as well. The burst to the hoop, the twitchy separation, and the soft touch on the jumper added to the intrigue as Scouts and college coaches looked on from the sideline. A guy to keep an eye on coming out of the Northeast Corner of the Peach State.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Sam Moody | Guard/Forward | Prince Avenue Christian | 2026</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>There wasn't a ton of size at the camp, giving guys like Moody, checking in at 6-foot-3, a chance to work inside without fear of a 6-9 guy throwing your shot into the seats. He did just that, not so much playing with his back to the basket, but making high IQ cuts to the rim and finishing with a flourish and at a high clip. Coaches dream about guys like Moody who you can put into a set offense and thrive with him, or let him play in a 5-out setting like most camps, and he'll find a gap or be around the basketball at both ends a ton.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2125561' first='Nick' last='Levi'] | Guard | Collins Hill | 2027</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I've always liked Collins Hill guys, regardless of the coach on hand, and they've had some good ones there, and have another now in Ty Baumgardner. The athletic prowess of their guys generally jumps out quickly, and Levi is an elite athlete. But much like [player_tooltip player_id='2297220' first='Chase' last='Mohn'] and Zaylen Shealer (standouts mentioned in our camp coverage), he was a poised and alert presence at both ends. Court-vision and shot-creation are numbers 1 and 2 on the list to look for this Eagle riser.</p>
