Jay Johnson
2024 6-3 W Jay Johnson – Warner Robins
Schools will want to check in with Jermarquis Johnson. Jay is a multidimensional wing that can play either on or off the ball. He makes things happen as a playmaker, serving as a big guard. Johnson sees the floor exceptionally well. When he attacks the rim, he’s a threat to thread the needle to an open teammate. If he finds a mismatch, Johnson will go on the block and post up. The toolsy swingman is an explosive leaper that rises up to rebound at a high level and provides versatility on defense. Johnson’s smooth game and propensity for filling up the box score will surely draw the attention of multiple college programs.

Isaiah Camon
2025 6-1 G Isaiah Camon – Lanier County
The talk of camp was the lefty from Lakeland. Camon, a First Team All-Region selection this past season, is an electric scorer from the mid-range. Isaiah assaults defenses with his pull-up jumper, loving to go left and stop on a dime when getting to his spots. He is a microwave scorer that pours in points in bunches.

Frank Jackson
2026 6-4 G Frank Jackson – Paideia
Frank Jackson is the definition of a “big guard”. The rising sophomore shrugged off defenders when getting to the rack to score through contact. Jackson loves getting downhill and can make a difference on the glass, but Frank’s three-point shot is what really helps him keep defenses off balance. He does a nice job creating separation on the perimeter and using his size to shoot over top of contests. At 6-foot-4 Jackson holds great value defensively and can hold his own when switching onto larger opponents.

Jakari Byrd
2025 6-5 F Jakari Byrd – Colquitt County
It didn’t take long for Jakari Byrd, a regular at PRO camps, to make his presence felt on Sunday. The powerful forward scored inside and out, dominating on the offensive glass and running the floor for easy buckets. Jakari had a strong baseline drive through contact and stepped outside to hit a three. The lefty is a workhorse around the basket and has started to expand his range. Stay tuned.

Quintes Yarbrough2024 6-3 W Quintes Yarbrough – Devyne Stephens
Yarbrough is a power perimeter player. He likes to use his strength to barrel his way to the bucket. His physicality helps him be an effective rebounder and a multi-positional defender.

Brent Williams
2026 6-7 PF Brent Williams – Loganville
Brent has an old school post game. He knows where his bread is buttered and that is on the block. Williams has great size and a sturdy enough frame to battle for post position and score through bumps inside. The lefty likes to get to his hook shot in the lane. Williams runs the floor in transition and will occasionally handle the ball up top. He works the baseline well on drives and can step out to the three-point line from time to time.

Brayden Holiday
2026 6-0 G Brayden Holiday – Mountain View
There was a lot to like about Brayden’s showing on Sunday. First off, he’s active. Holiday was always buzzing around the ball. He swooped in for rebounds and was effective when defending one-on-one. I was really impressed with his ability to finish. He used euro-steps to get to his floater and could squeeze through the defense for tough layups, using the perfect amount of English to kiss the ball off the backboard. Brayden also knocked down a few threes on the day. The Mountain View backcourt is in good hands.

Richard Dunston
2024 5-9 PG Richard Dunston – Meadowcreek
Dunston served as a pass-first playmaker. He had the ball on a string as he manipulated the defense and found the open man. Richard packed a punch as a scorer himself, getting to his spots in the mid-range and stretching out the defense with his three-point shot.

Tre Winters2025 6-4 W Tre Winters – Adairsville
With his size and athleticism, Winters has a tantalizing future at the next level. He was able to shoot gaps on defense and turn errant passes into breakaway slams. In the halfcourt, Tre was smooth getting to the rim for finger rolls and displayed advanced court vision with his ability to hit the open man.

2024 6-3 G Tim Smith – Central Gwinnett
Wiry and wired to score, Smith put up points from all angles on Sunday. He buried threes off the catch and off the dribble. He used a sharp crossover to plant his foot and get into the paint where he finished above the rim.

Zakariyya Dwight
2025 6-5 W Zakariyya Dwight – Crisp County
The Class 3A Most Improved Player turned heads with his high-flying play and interesting skill set. Dwight has great size as a swingman and the springs to live above the rim. Aside from his highlight dunks, Zakariyya uses his bounce when rebounding and altering shots defensively; he is capable of defending inside and out. While his dunks get the headlines, Dwight is also a solid outside shooter that can cash in corner threes. Only a rising junior, Zakariyya has a chance to climb up recruiting boards quickly.

Chasion Wilson2025 6-5 F Chasion Wilson – Lake Worth
Wilson always brings a high motor with him to camp. The Florida-native runs the floor and gets on the offensive glass for putbacks. He finishes with dunks. Chasion can help defend 3-5.

Hunter Amick
2024 6-4 W Hunter Amick – Brookwood
I would be surprised if Hunter Amick doesn’t have a breakout senior season. He has been consistently good throughout the offseason. He plays extremely hard. Hunter is a very good athlete with a quick second leap when rebounding. He’s able to attack off the dribble and finish at the basket. Amick has really grown as a playmaker. He pushes the ball well and can whip in one-handed passes on the move. His ability to clear rebounds and ignite fastbreaks keeps opponents on their heels as they must transition to defense quickly to keep pace with Amick in the open floor.

Kameron Plummer
2025 6-1 G Kameron Plummer – Houston County
It didn’t take long to identify Kameron Plummer’s money move. His sweet spot is the pull-up jumper from the mid-range. When Plummer was able to get into rhythm and attack with one or two dribbles, he was automatic. The long-armed youngster earned an offer from Voorhees after camp.

Joshua Goode2024 6-4 SG Joshua Goode – New Creation Christian
One of, if not the best three-point shooter in camp was Joshua Goode. He was lethal when left with space, especially making a home in the corners. A certified zone buster, Goode did more than just stroke it from deep. He was able to put the ball on the floor and hit tough floaters in traffic. The big guard has value at the next level with his shot making ability from the perimeter.

Cameron Stephen2025 6-3 G Cameron Stephen – Shiloh
An offseason move from Putnam County to Shiloh will likely put Cameron Stephen more in the spotlight. The rising junior is a smooth three-level scorer with an electric burst to the rim. He breaks down defenders when getting downhill and has an easy glide to the rim. Stephen’s ability to score off the dribble with his perimeter shot causes scouting problems for opponents. He can beat defenses in so many different ways. He is a stock riser.

Mackenna Nix2025 5-11 F Mackenna Nix – Temple
Following a breakout season in which she guided Temple to the Sweet 16 for the first time in over a decade, Mackenna Nix continued her ascent on Sunday, showcasing a versatile offensive repertoire. At nearly 6-foot tall, Nix can be a mismatch inside and out. She is a physical presence on the low block with great hands, able to snag rebounds at their highest point. Mackenna has a variety of back-to-the-basket post moves, on Sunday getting to her hook shot the most. While she is effective in the paint on post ups, running the floor and rolls, Nix can also attack from the perimeter. She beats defenders downhill and can stop short for pull-ups. Mackenna is also a willing three-point shooter that helps space the floor in spurts to open up the court for her teammates. Nix should be on the precipice of receiving offers. She looks like a solid D-II target with two more seasons to develop even more.

Jesstynie Scott
2025 5-9 G Jesstynie Scott – Schley County
Entering camp with a handful of offers scattered between D-I and D-II, Scott was able to separate herself from other guards on Sunday with her blend of size, skill, athleticism and IQ. The two-time All-State guard is a stat sheet stuffer. She does so much well as her sophomore season proved, posting 21.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 4.7 steals per game. Jesstynie stood out at camp as a vocal leader that also managed to lead by example. She set the tone with aggressive on-ball defense and converted turnovers into points, either getting all the way to the rim herself or delivering on-the-money assists to streaking teammates. Scott finishes well at the basket with both hands and is a solid three-point shooter. Her do-everything approach coupled with an overall mature feel gives Jesstynie a high ceiling as a rising upperclassman.

I'ziah McCutchins
2024 5-3 PG I’ziah McCutchins – Trion
As a true point guard should, I’ziah was able to influence games without having to be the primary scoring option. Her energy as a defender, her court vision as a playmaker and her security as a ball handler has led to a bevy of wins over the course of her career. McCutchins fills up box scores. She is a sneaky good rebounder for her size and her ability to always be around the ball often leads to good things. When she wants to, McCutchins can hurt defenses with her scoring. She does a nice job getting into the paint and is a solid three-point shooter off the dribble.

Madison Moody2026 5-5 G Madison Moody – Cherokee
Moody made an immediate impact as a freshman, earning All-Region honors. Her game was on full display at camp, using her perimeter firepower to score in different ways. Madison, who has strong legs which help her play with balance and explode up with lift on her jumpers, knocked down shots from all three levels. Moody canned a handful of threes on Sunday and was able to get to her floater when attacking the basket.

Madison Swint
2025 5-10 F Madison Swint – Carrollton
No matter what the setting, Madison Swint makes winning plays. Known for her willingness to do whatever is asked of her, it didn’t take any prompting to get Madison to play hard and make the right decisions. She rebounded in traffic, scored with both hands and of course, defended at a high level even drawing a charge – a rare occurrence in most camp settings. Swint knows how to stand out on defense; colleges will love her game.

Tori Ambroselli
2026 5-6 PG Tori Ambroselli – Centennial
Tori was one of the best freshmen in Georgia last year, averaging over 16 points per game. The dynamic playmaker was at it again on Sunday, using her speed to make things happen. Ambroselli picked up full court on defense, turning her ball handler multiple times before even getting to halfcourt. When the ball was in Tori’s hands, she excelled at breaking down the defense and getting into the paint where she thrived as a drive-and-kick facilitator. When she decided to hunt her own offense, Ambroselli was a blink in transition and was able to euro-step past defenders to finish with either hand. A D-I future isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

Nikolette Soden
2024 5-6 PG Nikolette Soden – Landmark Christian
I really liked what I saw from Nikolette Soden. The rising senior is a sparkplug in the backcourt. She is small but quick, darting in different directions. She had some impressive drives to the hoop, her best coming as she looked off a defender with a ball fake and went up for a layup. Soden should have plenty of opportunities to flourish her senior season at Landmark Christian. Small schools will want to keep an eye on her development.

2024 5-10 F Dailey Jefferson – Walker
I always appreciate the activity of Dailey Jefferson. She is a springy forward that at times plays bigger than her height with how well she rebounds. Dailey’s defense is also a boon, long enough to defend in the post and block shots but also quick enough to move her feet laterally when defending on the perimeter. Jefferson is a constant double-double threat cleaning up misses. Dailey attacks from 15-feet and in, a solid option in the high post that can turn and face. Jefferson will stretch the floor from time to time as a capable three-point shooter. D-III programs took note of her performance.

Takeriauna Mosley2024 5-4 PG Takeriauna Mosley – Handley, AL
In from Alabama, the slick southpaw turned heads with her playmaking in the open floor. Mosley has great speed with the ball, pushing it up the court. She makes tough passes look easy, hitting teammates on the run with low laser-like bounce passes. Takeriauna is a shifty athlete that wiggles her way to the rim using spin moves. Ranked as the 28th best prospect in Alabama, Mosley shined as one of the top guards in camp and certainly one of the most exciting players to watch.

Asiah Thompson
2026 5-7 W Asiah Thompson – Wheeler
Keep an eye on Asiah. She has a knack for being around the ball. Thompson is a versatile piece that plays bigger than her size. She has a strong build and uses her body well when rebounding. Thompson is a sold athlete that is good at going coast-to-coast.

Hannah Lopez
2025 5-5 PG Hannah Lopez – Denmark
Hannah Lopez did her thing on Sunday, scoring on smooth drives to the basket with both hands and hitting threes. When Hannah is aggressive and looking for her offense, it opens up the floor for everyone else. She is a dangerous three-level scorer that breaks down defenses once she beats her on-ball defender. She will either pop a pull-up, a floater or hit an open shooter.

Shakiria Foster
2024 5-7 G Shakiria Foster – Lamar County
The multi-sport star made a positive first impression. Foster was named Class A D-I Second Team All-State after erupting for 26.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 5.4 steals per game. Shy is a powerful athlete with a running back’s mentality in the open floor. After securing rebounds, she looks to break out ahead of the pack and get to the hoop. Foster is physically strong, able to shake defenders and score through contact at the rim. Shakiria has a strong pro hop gather in traffic which helps her load up to explode to the rim. Non-D-I schools of all levels should familiarize themselves with Foster’s game.
