One of the smaller prospects in attendance this weekend, Craft is also one of the most skilled. Impossible to bother off the dribble, Craft has the ball on a string and can confidently attack using either hand. In the drills part of minicamp, Craft makes everything look easy as his on-ball skill is exceptional. Once Craft fills out his frame and adds muscle over the next few years, he’ll be even tougher to stop offensively. In a loaded Atlanta 2028 class, Craft is making a name for himself on a national stage this weekend.

Silky smooth with the ball in his hands, Craft has a mature feel for the game. He doesn’t get rushed by defenders. Brielen is thin and lanky but has functional strength to not get deterred by bigger players. Craft scores from all three levels with deep range off the dribble beyond the arc. When he decides to slither to the hoop, Craft is crafty with both hands.
