Expert Analysis
Doneah Marshall | Prep Hoops Scout
Kam picked up 94-feet in Bates Fundamentals 15U’s final matchup of the weekend. He seemed to have an endless of amount of energy to support his defensive play and his effort led to a lot of positivity down the stretch. I counted at least 4 steals on top of several deflections that all resulted from Kam’s relentless ball pressure and quick instincts. He paired his defensive masterclass with solid output at the point guard spot – generating offense through high-level facilitation, court vision, and ball-handling skills.

Thompson, like Marcum, is a high IQ point guard whose best basketball is all ahead of him. Kamden is capable of scoring or facilitating when he’s got the ball in his hands. He will need to continue getting stronger and improve his lateral quickness but Thompson could go from relative anonymity this season to being a top guard in Louisville as a Sophomore.

Thompson is a name that has been heard on the AAU circuit in recent seasons but no one on our staff has been able to get eyes on him yet. Likely a top 40 or better prospect in the class once we are able to properly rank him, Kam is expected to contribute some meaningful minutes at the varsity level for a very young Ballard squad this season.
