We introduce our updated Class of 2026 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 2026 prospects and learn a little about their reputation. Peruse the complete 2026 rankings.
#101 Keller Jackson Keller Jackson 6'3" | PF Blackman | 2026 State TN (Blackman)
Keller claimed a sizable role on Blackman this season. He earned that role with exceptional defensive accountability and toughness around the lane. Keller camped with PrepHoopsTN before. His balance is good though he plays power forward at about 6-foot-4, so his college level is tricky. Can he be a wing? College bigs at his current height are extremely rare. Keller takes great care of the basketball without sacrificing effort and grit. Very naturally strong and also “weightroom-strong”.
#102 CJ Turner CJ Turner 6'3" | SF Harpeth | 2026 State TN (Harpeth)
Shooting touch is a strength for the hulking wing. Turner appeared from afar to be more ready to shoot when the ball arrived than earlier in his career. A willing, sometimes very good passer.
“CJ grew a lot for us this year,” recapped Harpeth Head Coach Daniel Moman. “Coming off an injury over the summer, he started off a little slow, but still managed to lead us in rebounds and 2nd in points, while also being our most clutch shooter. He averaged 10 pts and 6 rebounds and his best game was his last game before he reinjured his foot where he scored 20 pts and had 6 rebounds. The biggest difference between last year and this year was his confidence and aggression. When he has the right mindset, he can be the best player on the court for either team.”
#103 Tametric Harris Tametric Harris 6'0" | SG Bolivar Central | 2026 State TN (Bolivar Central)
Jet-quick. Shooter. A little small for a college 2-guard, unless he plays at the NAIA-level. Quick hands. Slight of frame. He could add some good weight without sacrificing quickness, which is one of his greatest physical attributes. Like all guards on Bolivar Central, Harris can play effectively with speed.
#104 Wilson Luton Wilson Luton 6'2" | SG Knoxville Webb | 2026 State TN (Knox Webb)
Courtney Smith EvalWilson Luton, Knoxville Webb: Luton debuts at No. 90. The 6-2 shooting guard does a great job of moving without the basketball. So far this season for the Spartans, Luton has taken a lot of quality shots. He puts forth the effort on defense. Last weekend in the Allen Iverson Battle in the Bluff showcase event, Luton displayed the offensive threat he is, and his presence on the floor makes a difference.
#105 Waymon West Waymon West 6'4" | SG Riverdale | 2026 State TN (Riverdale)
Ideal height for a college guard at 6-foot-4. Waymon showed the ability during his sophomore season to create his own points from nothing. A conjurer. West was one of the few bright spots for the Riverdale attack, routinely scoring in double figures. Crafty. Waymon dribbles in and out of traffic very well for his size and age. West projects as a wing scorer. In order to become more attractive to college coaches, he needs to cut down on his turnovers and just get better doing what he already does well. The shooting percentage will climb as he gets more skilled and stronger physically.
