Booth is slowly chugging along in his development. The 6-foot-10 center seems to have gotten stronger and in better shape as of late and really impressed me with his ability to run the floor this weekend. The rim-running center got tons of deep post catches because of his willingness to run early, but he was also his team’s best defensive rebounder on the other end, showcasing a willingness to sprint back. He’s slowly increasing his range out to the perimeter on the offensive end, but it’s his ability to bang with opposing bigs and set crushing screens that makes him a scholarship prospect. Booth plays the right way and is as tough as they come at the forward position, but the skillset is expanding too.

Booth plays with a tremendous amount of passion and energy whenever he steps onto the floor. He does much of his damage inside the arc and runs the floor exceptionally well for his size, rim-running like a deer in the open field to create easy scoring opportunities in transition. Booth has no issues getting in the mix on the glass, battling for rebounds and helping his team win possessions. On the block, he showed impressive patience and composure, utilizing an array of post moves when defenders were on his hip or playing from behind. His body control is excellent, allowing him to finish difficult plays and maintain balance in traffic. When Booth gets into a scoring rhythm, he is capable of putting together points in bunches and taking over stretches of a game. His soft hands also stand out, as he secures passes with ease, much like a tight end hauling in a catch over the middle. I really liked how physical he was when matched up against smaller defenders, using his strength as a battering ram to create advantages in the paint. Beyond his scoring, Booth displayed strong feel as a passer, connecting with cutting teammates and delivering pocket passes to slashers for easy baskets. He also benefited from a few friendly bounces around the rim, but those shots were often the product of his touch and feel inside. For a player his size, Booth is more nimble on his feet than many would expect. Defensively, I would like to see him become a step quicker when closing out and guarding on the perimeter, but the tools are there for him to continue improving. With his combination of skill, toughness, feel, and production, Booth should be a priority target for high-academic Division I programs.

On a night where Devan Williams Devan Williams 6'1" | PG Milton Academy | 2026 State New E scored his 2,000th point (!!!), I actually thought it was Booth who was Milton Academy’s most important player. The 6-foot-9 center was far too big for anyone on Belmont Hill to contend with, and he dominated on the offensive glass all night. He does a good job finding his way to the front of the rim, and once he secures a rebound, he has the strength and skill to find ways to score it around the hoop, even if there’s contact. He always seems to be in the right place at the right time (especially in the dunker spots), and I was super intrigued by one pass he threw in transition—perhaps he has even more development coming in the future. Booth is an awesome player who should be getting scholarship looks.

Booth has grown so much—both physically and skill wise—in the past year. The 6-foot-9 big man has put on muscle, and it has made him a more effective defensive presence when it comes to defending the post and contesting drives. Offensively, he has greatly improved his footwork and touch around the rim and is also more coordinated and has better hands than he used to, which allows him to convert on tons of dunker-spot layups and rim runs. Booth, who’s only a junior, is probably a scholarship prospect when all is said and done. He’s continuing to get better, so the sky is the limit.

Booth, a forward out of Milton Academy, contolled the game with his physical presence inside of the paint. Long a prospect to watch in New England, Booth looks to be playing more assertively than ever before. He’s added significant strength, which is allowing him to assert his presence around the rim, as both a low post scorer and shot blocker. He continues to do a good job of running the floor in transition, gobbles up defensive rebounds, and shows the ability to operate from a variety of spots in the half-court.

Booth was probably Milton’s most dominant player on Friday night. The 6-foot-9 big man has exceptional strength in the post and used his drop step moves and footwork to destroy Governor’s bigs. He has gotten a lot more skilled as of late and is going to be garnering some scholarship looks with his combination of physical tools and post presence.

Booth is far from polished, but the 6-foot-10 sophomore has a bright future ahead. He runs the floor, has a good motor, and has the physical tools necessary to project him as a scholarship level player. He showed some decent drop-step moves in the post and some workable touch around the rim. He also communicates and has good positioning defensively.
