Saturday National 3SSB Standouts

The spring live period was a massive success for major shoe circuits to bring out top college coaches and give players the opportunity to play in front of coaches looking to offer the next generation of stars. In this article we'll break down the national standouts from Saturday's 3SSB action.    Maybe the top performance I saw all day, Womack knocked down four 3-pointers in the first half with three coming from the same spot in the left corner and the last being a four-point play for his team. With a long wingspan and a high release point, Womack could knock down shots over late contests, and this wingspan gives him defensive upside down the road. Down three with five seconds left in regulation, Womack knocked down a cold-blooded step-back 3-pointer to send the game to overtime and then in overtime with his team down one hit a tough isolation move on his defender to score at the rim and win the game. Incredible performance to secure the victory for his team.     Florida's 2029 class is absolutely loaded with talent and Evans Jr already projects as a top national prospect in the 2029 class. I was so impressed with Evans Jr's relentless motor as he seemed to never stop moving and making plays happen. With long strides on drives and in transition, Evans Jr is tough to stop in the open floor and when he's able to get to the lane off the dribble. An efficient player, Evans Jr doesn't force the issue and gets some easy looks by his consistent activity and movement. Also flashing 3-point shooting ability with a wing 3-pointer off movement, Evans Jr can score the ball in a variety of ways even as he's playing up two age groups. When our 2029 national rankings drop in the Fall, Evans Jr will be near the top.     Big performance for Wilson Jr in an incredible contest against Phenom United as [program_tooltip program_id='2075431' first='D1' last='Minnesota'] 16 U grinded out a tough win. A crafty below the rim finisher, Wilson Jr was able to acrobatically avoid shot blockers and his unique pace on the ball allowed him to get by his primary defender. A skilled scoring guard, Wilson Jr got to his spots off the dribble and played on balance. One of the most productive 16 U guards I saw all weekend, I'd expect Wilson Jr's recruitment to spike in the next few months.     Continuing to improve each time he steps on the court, Kamagate made his debut in our national rankings at 11 and is quickly showing that is too low for a player of his ability. A monster shot blocker, Kamagate can fly in from out of nowhere to spike the ball away and help start the fast break for Compton Magic. Kamagate is one of the top shot blockers in the country but he's also one of the best lob catchers and offensive rebounders as well. Kamagate had a handful of dunks off alley-oops, putbacks and simple catch and finishes as he's a dominant athlete despite playing up. Expect Kamagate to debut as a five star prospect the next time other national rankings sites update as he projects as a potential NBA lottery pick.     One of the top scorers at the 16 U level on the 3SSB circuit, McDaniel makes it look so effortless at times for Southern Assault. Helping his team go 4-0 on the weekend and earning an offer from Washington in the process, McDaniel is one of the top shooters in the country and when his feet are set and he has a sliver of space, it's almost always three points for his team. More than just a pure specialist, McDaniel doesn't force the issue when his shot is taken away and is more than comfortable with making the extra pass and then looking to relocate off the ball. Wearing out defenders who have to track him, McDaniel is in excellent shape physically. Expect to continue to hear McDaniel's name get mentioned in the discussions of best shooters in the 2028 class nationally.     Midwest Basketball Club 3SSB 15 U had a handful of new names for me to watch locally but it was Mohler from Indiana who stole the show. A dominant interior presence, Mohler plays with such aggressive force when he catches the ball 15 feet and in as he's looking to get to the rim to score. Mohler was efficient all weekend and was putting up double-double performances thanks to his motor and strength on the glass. Expect to hear a lot about Mohler over the next few years as scouts and college programs familiarize themselves with the class of 2029.
