He played a vital rotational role while doing so and notably connected on 44% of his field goal attempts. Since then, he's brought his talents back closer to home after having joined 3SSB powerhouse, Indiana Elite.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1745583"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a456314"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After building one of the most impressive resumes in Kentucky basketball history, news of Braxton's departure for prep school powerhouse Prolific Prep has swept through the state over the past week. Braxton began his final season of travel ball with [program_tooltip program_id='2478682' first='Kentucky' last='Ambition'] on the Made Hoops Circuit where he headlined as a member of the MHC's inaugural NIL class. He'll head into July with WV Gold of Puma's affiliate circuit, the PRO16.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2780946"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a4563f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aidan's stock has shot up over the past few months following the opportunity to showcase his diverse skillset on the PRO16 15U division with Kentucky Basketball Club. Keeping it in the family, he'll now be running with Kentucky Basketball Club West in the upcoming live period sessions. Although he'll be making the jump over to Puma's NXTPRO division, the lengthy swingman will be playing up a grade level while doing so.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2983287"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a4564d4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cam showcased why he's one of the top point guards in Kentucky, possibly regardless of class, alongside Kentucky Basketball PRO16 this past spring. Expect him to continue doing so on Adidas' 3SSB circuit with Ohio-based Phenom United. His advanced playstyle could attract the attention of college coaches as early as this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2450182"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a4565bc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2450182' first='Tyson' last='Duke'] is back with [program_tooltip program_id='2135129' first='Griffin' last='Elite'], one of Kentucky's most successful programs, on the UA Rise circuit. The 6'4" combo guard returns after stints on the Made Hoops Circuit with Midwest Elite Cincy, an affiliate of Midwest Basketball Club, and on Nike's EYCL circuit with Bates Fundamentals. He joins a loaded roster that's guided by Campbellsville University MBB and WBB Assistant Coach, Austin Sparrow.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2360943"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a4566a3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Formerly with Kentucky Basketball Club on the Puma-sponsored PRO16 Circuit, Bryce will join [player_tooltip player_id='2450182' first='Tyson' last='Duke'] and his fellow top 2028 high school teammate [player_tooltip player_id='2522912' first='Cooper' last='Stone'] on the UA Rise Circuit with [program_tooltip program_id='2135129' first='Griffin' last='Elite']. He'll add length and versatility on the wing, making Griffin's 16U squad even more dangerous than they already were.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2983291"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a456784"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aaron has left Nike EYBL's Bates Fundamentals and will suit up for Wildcat Select on the Adidas 3SSB circuit this weekend. He'll join [player_tooltip player_id='2851845' first='Mason' last='Grivna'] to round out an incredibly large frontcourt that'll be tough for most opponents to match up with let alone overpower. As one of the best 15U teams in the country, expect the inflated attention that has followed Wildcat Select to be of benefit to Aaron's unique skillset.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2851899"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a4e67a45685a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In similar fashion to [player_tooltip player_id='2983291' first='Aaron' last='Huffman'], Kam will also depart Bates Fundamentals of the Nike EYBL circuit for Wildcat Select of Adidas' 3SSB platform. He'll join fellow top 2029 guards [player_tooltip player_id='2972970' first='CJ' last='Sweeney'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2851875' first='Jeremiah' last='Queen'] in hopes of bringing some hardware back to Louisville. Wildcat Select 15U is spearheaded by the basketball mind of former Louisville Cardinal and Shawnee boys' basketball head coach, Ellis Myles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
