<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The upcoming academic school year is creeping closer as September is about three weeks away.

Here are the 2026 Group 2 combo guards to track this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/position-ranking-table {"name":"acf/position-ranking-table","data":{"class":"2026","_class":"field_65cfb7374abb9","position":"77244","_position":"field_65cfbfcb19ad6","national_rankings":"0","_national_rankings":"field_660c1d73c0e49","state":"75759","_state":"field_65cfb88a603fe"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6898ac0a3b1dd"} /--> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1608251' first='Bryce' last='Hillman'], 6'2 Camden Eastside</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hillman has had a strong summer and should carry it over into the winter. The 6'2 guard has a good handle, which he uses to blow by his defender and finishes in a variety of ways around the rim. Hillman can also score in the mid-range and sets his feet before he shoots. He pushes the pace well in transition and can defend both back court positions. Hillman can put up points in bunches and should put that on display this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2342604' first='Dean' last='Yellen Jr'], 6'0 Johnson</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Yellen Jr had a big summer and is looking to have an even bigger senior season. The 6'0 guard attacks the basket with a purpose as he finishes strong around the rim and can make shots through contact. Yellen Jr has a nice touch in the mid-range and moves well without the ball in his hands. He is an underrated defender and rarely forces shots in the half court. Yellen Jr is a gritty guard prospect who should make plays at both ends of the floor throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2763494' first='Jayden' last='Solomon'], 6'2 Newark Collegiate</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Solomon is one of the more underrated prospects in Essex County and should put it on display this season. The 6'2 guard has a good first step, which he uses to blow by his defender and finishes well around the basket. Solomon can also play off the ball and finds his open teammates in the half court. He uses his quick hands to get deflections on defense and pushes the pace well in transition. Solomon is a tough guard prospect who should fill up the stat sheet throughout the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2763471' first='Lamar' last='Little'], Overbrook</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Little does a little bit of everything for the Rams and should put it on display this season. He has a good release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Little is more than just a shooter as he can also get to the rim off the bounce and finishes nicely around the rim. He is a tough rebounder and uses his length to get deflections on the defensive end. Little had four double-doubles last season and should eclipse that mark during his senior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1859573' first='Jaylin' last='Reeves'], 5'10 Monmouth Regional</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Reeves should have a breakout senior season as he should get more touches in the offense. The 5'10 guard has a good handle, which he uses to get to his spot on the floor and finishes well around the rim. Reeves can also score in the mid-range and rarely forces shots in the half court. He is an underrated passer and gets deflections on the defensive end. Reeves has the potential to put up points in bunches and should put that on display this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
