ProSpecs Camp Draws Top Midwest Talent, Impresses Coaches - Pt. 3

The annual ProSpecs Camp once again lived up to the hype, assembling over 100 of the top high school basketball prospects from across the Midwest. Held in Oklahoma City, the camp featured a highly competitive atmosphere, as athletes competed in full five-on-five games designed to showcase their skills in live, game-like situations. A wide range of college coaches and recruiters -- representing programs at every level -- were on hand, adding to the energy and giving players a prime opportunity to elevate their recruitment profiles.   In this five-part series, I'll highlight several standout performers from the event -- athletes who not only made a strong impression but are poised to carry that momentum into the upcoming winter season.   [player_tooltip player_id='2382094' first='Bo' last='Barber'] | 6'7" Wing | Crossings Christian | [program_tooltip program_id='2075773' first='Oklahoma' last='Wolfpack']   I've had the opportunity to watch Bo live on several occasions throughout the summer, and with each viewing, he's continued to elevate his game and leave a stronger impression. What stood out in Oklahoma City is how difficult he is to match up with — thanks to a rare blend of size, length, athleticism, and skill. He has the physical tools to play and guard multiple positions. One of the most notable areas of growth has been his perimeter game. Barber consistently hit three-point shots at a high volume and with strong efficiency. These weren't just catch-and-shoot looks either — he showed the ability to step into threes off the dribble and coming off of movement, showing a growing confidence and versatility as a shooter. Beyond his shooting, Barber's overall offensive feel seems to be evolving. He's becoming more comfortable handling the ball in space, particularly in transition, where he can take a rebound coast-to-coast or fill the lane and finish with authority. His open-court athleticism caught defenders off guard multiple times — he's quicker than he looks and has no trouble elevating above the rim when given a runway. There's a level of “sneaky bounce” that isn't always apparent until he explodes for a finish.   [player_tooltip player_id='1552358' first='Jett' last='Mueggenborg'] | 6'3" Guard | Okarche | Team Oklahoma   Jett proved to be one of the more dynamic scorers at camp, showing the ability to put points on the board in a variety of ways. He had stretches where he scored at will, quickly finding his rhythm — especially from the perimeter. He possesses a smooth, effortless left-handed shooting stroke that allows him to heat up early and stay hot. Whether spotting up or pulling up off the dribble, his shot is very smooth and repeatable, giving him confidence to shoot from deep with range. But Jett wasn't just a perimeter threat. He consistently showed the ability to put the ball on the floor and attack closeouts with a quick and explosive first step. Once downhill, he displayed a crafty finishing package around the rim. He used his body well to shield defenders, absorbed contact, and finished with both touch and creativity. His ability to adjust mid-air and finish through traffic makes him a versatile scorer inside and out.   [player_tooltip player_id='2140720' first='Aidan' last='Cooper-Kelley'] | 6'0" Guard | Norman | AAO Flight   One of the most impressive true point guards in attendance, Aidan stood out with his poise, vision, and natural feel for the position. He played with a clear pass-first mindset, consistently looking to create for others and get his teammates involved. His decision-making in ball screen situations was particularly advanced — he read coverages well and delivered timely passes, often setting up easy scoring opportunities around the rim. What set Cooper-Kelley apart was not just his unselfishness, but the quality of his reads. He demonstrated great patience and understanding of pacing, knowing when to engage defenders and when to make the simple play. Whether slipping a pocket pass, hitting the roller with touch, or spraying it out to shooters, he kept the offense flowing and under control. While his primary role was as a facilitator, Aidan also showed he could score when needed. His in-between game was a major asset — he consistently found success with floaters, runners, and soft touch shots in the lane, allowing him to score over size without needing to get all the way to the rim.   [player_tooltip player_id='2408566' first='Carter' last='Coleman'] | 6'7" Forward | Oklahoma Christian | Brad Beal Elite   Carter may possess the highest long-term upside of any player on this list. He immediately stood out with his impressive physical tools — particularly his size, length, and fluid athleticism — and consistently impacted games, even when matched up against older and more experienced competition. Defensively and on the glass, his length allowed him to alter shots, contest passing lanes, and rebound outside of his area. He made his presence felt without needing plays run for him, which speaks to his natural instincts and ability to affect winning in multiple ways. Offensively, Coleman was strong from the perimeter. He knocked down several catch-and-shoot threes with confidence. While still developing as a shot creator, his ability to stretch the floor at his size is a promising sign of things to come. He also ran the floor hard in transition, consistently beating his man downcourt and finishing above the rim. His athleticism really popped in the open floor — whether it was finishing creatively, tip-ins, or slashing to the rim through contact.   [player_tooltip player_id='1552365' first='Braden' last='Buckingham'] | 6'1" Guard | Crossings Christian | Southern Assault Texoma   Braden was one of the most enjoyable and impactful players to watch throughout the day, thanks to his relentless energy, toughness, and two-way presence. He played with a level of intensity that set the tone for his team. His motor was impressive, and he consistently made hustle plays that don't always show up in the box score but absolutely influence the outcome of a game. Defensively, Braden brought physicality and effort — getting into ball handlers, fighting through screens, and making life difficult for opposing guards. He never took a possession off and often ignited momentum-shifting plays with his on-ball pressure or timely help rotations. On the offensive end, Buckingham stepped up in key moments. He hit a number of tough, clutch shots, showing confidence under pressure and the ability to score when his team needed it most. But perhaps more importantly, he displayed a high basketball IQ — making smart reads, moving without the ball, and setting up teammates with timely passes.
