We introduce our updated Class of 2025 rankings!! Rankings are subjective and PrepHoops.com ranks purely upon potential and where the player will be at their basketball peak. Production factors in only when helping prove the potential is greater or lesser. Why did we rank these guys? Why are they at this spot? Take a look at five Class of 2025 prospects and learn a little about their reputation.
Peruse the complete 2025 rankings.
Highlights
#66 [player_tooltip player_id='1663715' first='Tyreque' last='McCarver'] (Smyrna) is a breakdown dribbler. Very good penetrator. McCarver is a younger brother of former NextLevelSkills0 Nashville Private vs Public Schools All Star Ashton McCarver (Dyersburg State sophomore). The crossover is special. Tyreque can get by any average high school defender. His strides are not that long, so he will be well-served to continue the impressive (pardon the pun) strides in the weight room on his lower body. He posted that he can now squat 300 pounds. The quickness is special. Layup package is nice.
Highlights
#67 [player_tooltip player_id='1395364' first='Gabe' last='Davenport'] (Columbia Academy) will be capable of playing point guard or shooting guard at a NAIA or D3 school. His shooting is very consistent at the high school level. That projects favorably going forward. Davenport does not get enough time on the ball to fully prove his point guard skills with Columbia Academy as Jeremy Jackson is a ball-dominant guard along with [player_tooltip player_id='1125602' first='Andre' last='McClellan'] and even [player_tooltip player_id='2116002' first='Harrison' last='Brownlee'] was very solid with the dribble and drive in June during BCAT Team Camp. Davenport can handle, but his film reel there will not be as long as it could be for this reason. For example, he only averaged 1.9 assists per game, which is a reflection of his touches in the halfcourt that are not shots.
During his sophomore season Davenport scored 12.8 points per game along with 3.4 rpg, 1.9 apg, 1.6 spg. He lead the team in steals, which was a nice accomplishment.
Gabe played a little bit of varsity for CA as an eighth grader. He started as a freshman and will be a four-year double-figure scorer by the time he graduates in the spring of 2025.
Davenport ran with STARS this past summer.
During UA RISE Session 1 he averaged 14 ppg and Session 2 improved to 20 per with 50% from 3. "We won [the] UA Rise championship for 16u. Then, during the First BCAT I averaged 16. Second BCAT I averaged 32 with a 45-point game hitting 13 threes."
#68 [player_tooltip player_id='1971524' first='Jadyn' last='Lee'] (Munford / Boom City Elite) was a prolific scorer for Munford last winter. The Cougar ran a very successful play for him where he caught the ball as he curled off a high screen, and then dashed to the basket with the dribble and momentum.
Last season, Jadyn knew all of the plays and maintained an ongoing conversation, largely him listening, with Munford Head Coach Nicolas Buford throughout. NOTE: Nicolas Buford may not be the coach when the season begins. Currently, the program attached an interim tag to an assistant coach. Buford was arrested July 17th and charged with domestic assault and interference with an emergency call. He appears in court August 29th.
Currently, Cameron Foster, former Munford assistant coach is serving as an interim. Asked if Coach Foster will begin the season as the head coach, Munford Principal Courtney Fee said, "No comment on that."

[player_tooltip player_id='1971524' first='Jadyn' last='Lee'] will challenge for District MVP. Needs to improve his defense in the 2-3 zone. It was spotty against Ripley High way back in February.
Highlights
#69 [player_tooltip player_id='1352801' first='Gunnar' last='Lewis'] (C.P.A.) showed grit and guile during his sophomore season. C.P.A. gave him a lot of duties for such a young player and he handled them smoothly. Lewis is a strong shooter, but both he and the team play best when he is passing and finding players on the break. Lewis thrived within the heavily-spaced C.P.A. offense. He showed poise in traffic and can finish with a little flourish, at times.
Highlights
#70 [player_tooltip player_id='1659680' first='Garrett' last='Giles'] (Oak Ridge) is an increasingly athletic wing with dreamy wing height. His shooting touch was ahead of his agility way back when he camped with PrepHoopsTN Combine. He showed very well at the BCAT Team Camp in mid-June. Transferring to Oak Ridge from Greenback appears to have helped him get quicker out of necessity perhaps. Giles is likely to leap into the Top 50 by the time high school starts, if he keeps developing his upper body strength. Much, much improved in the last 12 months.
