Continue ReadingAnother excellent weekend of basketball is officially in the books as the annual Havoc in the Heartland has come to a close. Some of the best competition from around the Midwest, and beyond, descended on Fishers High School, the Noblesville Boys & Girls Club, and the National Sports Arena for a weekend full of basketball. We will have plenty of content recapping the event over the next few days including All-Tournament teams, stock-risers, new names, and much more. Now, let’s take a look at six prospects in the Class of 2025 that improved their stock.
Winning the games can sometimes get underrated in grassroots basketball. However, on the Prep Hoops Circuit, we like to give a little extra to shine to those who help their teams have success. Bartolai was a big part of LVL Basketball 2025 going 4-0 on the weekend at the Havoc in the Heartland. The 6’3″ guard from Lane Tech was in double-figures every game including a big 20-point performance on Saturday morning. He has a really well-rounded offensive game with good physical and athletic tools.
Highlights
This is what we had to say after watching Buchanan play on Saturday, “Buchanan caught the attention of everyone in the gym with a big-time two-handed slam in transition. Then, he continued to play well knocking in a couple of three-point shots, attacking the basket off of the dribble, and finishing opportunities in transition. The 6’2” athlete from Oswego East High School is definitely a prospect to watch this spring and summer.” He is an intriguing one to follow due to what he brings to the table athletically.
A player that has really come on strong this spring and caught the attention of us at Prep Hoops Indiana, this 6’5″ wing from Bishop Roll continued to play well this weekend at the Havoc in the Heartland. Johnson had back-to-back 20 points games on Saturday including knocking in four three-point shots in a win against AyoDosElite 2025. The Indiana Game National-1 (Gold) 2025 prospect is a versatile scorer, an impressive athlete, and can get hot from beyond the arc.
We were in attendance at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday morning at the Noblesville Boys & Girls Club as Joseph connected on six three-point shots and scored a game-high 26 points as Team Teague 2025 took down Indiana Game National-1 (Gold) 2025. He went on to make 11 more triples over the next three games proving himself as one of the best under-the-radar shooters at the event. Joseph, a Pike High School product, is one to keep an eye on this spring and summer.

Teschendorf made his return to the floor for Kyle Guy Elite – Williams 2025 over the weekend at the Havoc in the Heartland and wasted no time making his presence felt. The 6’2″ guard from Mt. Vernon (Fortville) High School poured in 25 points against a talented AZ Rise N Grind team on Sunday showcasing his ability to relentlessly attack the rim off of the dribble. He finishes at a high-percentage due to his athleticism and strength.
Highlights
We’ve been a big fan of this Ben Davis High School prospect for quite a while now at Prep Hoops Indiana. He first broke out on our circuit two summers ago and is now still making noise at a high-level for EG10 2025. The 6’7″ forward was among the longest, bounciest front court pieces in the gym with numerous big-time dunks and rebounds outside of his area. There is a lot get excited about in terms of his ceiling. College coaches should be taking notice over the next couple of months.
