Evaluation:
Perfect stretch 4 that can shoot the 3 with range, take bigger forwards off the bounce, has a high basketball IQ, and is a tough matchup as a trail 4 in PnR action. You can tell he loves the game, he plays with tremendous energy, competes hard and plays with a certain confidence that could end up leading to a LM D1 Offer in the Spring. Talented and Tough are hard to find these days and Braden is both. Not a coincidence that Champion who lost in State last year is off to a 22-3 start again with Braden leading the way. Already has 2 legit NCAA D2 offers but wants to play his way onto LM D1 boards. If Champion is playing in the Alamo Dome again I can certainly see that happening.

Glenn
Bishop
2023
Forward
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
Glenn is a scholarship level athlete, has a college ready body, and looks his best
in a team setting. At the UC Camps, when we got to the 3 on 3, 4 on 4 segments and 5 on 5 structured games he started to stand out with his playmaking ability. Tough matchup with his ability to put it on the floor and make plays off the bounce, skilled passer from the high post, and good basketball IQ as he took advantage of mismatches when wings where guarding him on D. or post up smaller wings. Not a lot of flash to Glenn, just results and he continues to progress as he is having a big time Sr Season in a very Tough Houston District. Gets to the basket with authority, draws fouls in the paint, and uses his body to shield off bigger opponents. Glenn has the versatility on both ends to play and guard multiple positions. If he starts to knock down the 3pt shot at a higher % he could work his way onto LM D1 boards after 2 years of JC ball. Regardless, he is a full scholarship level talent that will be a late steal.

Combo Guard
Height:

Weight:
Evaluation:
The type of player that asks to guard the other team's best player, then goes 5-7 from the 3 with the opposing team's top defender guarding him. Love his grit and competitive spirit as well heading into the Spring. Not sure why more NAIA/NCAA D2 Programs have not shown more interest or offered at this point, but he is set to put up big numbers in the 2nd Semester and will have end with some scholarship level offers in April. Right now has several solid D3 options but waiting to decide in April. Do some research if you need a shooter!

The only 2024 at the DFW Camp all 4 College Coaches projected at the higher levels (NCAA D2/LM D1). Uriah is an explosive athlete, shoots it with range, and plays with great pace. Just has that look of a player that could move onto D1 Boards if he puts up big numbers this Season. High IQ Combo Guard who can run a team, or play off the ball and knock down 3s at a high %. Has had 6 30+ Point Games in the Fall and is playing Scholarship Level Basketball. College Ready size, length, and athleticism that is putting up big numbers heading down the stretch!

Cayden
Branch
2023
2 Guard
Height:
6'3
180
Weight:
Evaluation:
Cayden can flat out shoot the ball, and has a college ready release as he raises up on the catch and creates space when shooting the ball. His college strength is shooting the 3 but he has realized since the first camp, he can do so much more at 6 '4 than knock down shots. That’s what UC Exposure is all about, get exposed early, get back to work, get better in those areas, and make progress in areas you need to improve. Cayden did just that, now he is a shooter that is making more winning plays without the ball in his hands, still a high % college ready shooter, and understands how to create space and get his shot off vs more athletic defenders.

Lead Guard who brings all the Leadership traits to the floor that you look for in PG’s. Tough hard nosed 2-Way Player that sets the tone on D with his on ball pressure, and excels in the open court as a playmaker. Would be a great fit in an Up Tempo Program that picks up full court defensively and looks to get out an run Offensively. Jahlil does a great job of creating plays off the bounce and getting in the Paint both in transition and in the HC. If you play pressure man to man and push it this kid is a FIT.

Evaluation:
Active Defensively, runs the floor like a Guard, and attacks the glass on both ends of the Floor. Still Raw Offensively but the foundation and tools are there for Justin to turn into a very good Small Forward at the College Level with his Motor and Upside. Right now he brings Defense & Rebounding to the Floor, and plays with great Energy. Has the length, agility, and athleticism to guard multiple positions, and does a good job finishing around the basket. I can see him going the JC Route, and after 2 more years to continue to grow his overall Offensive Skill Set, he would have several options at the D2/LM Levels.

Evaluation:
Gian doesn't pass the eye test walking in the door, but he passes the ‘can play’ test if you get a more in-depth look like you do at UC Exposure Camps. 2 College Coaches listed him as a small college Combo, scores it at all 3 levels, and just finds ways to put points on the board. Scores it in bunches and uses his body well in the paint to shield off bigger guards, finish plays, or draw fouls. Gian has a very quick first step and gets to the paint at will making plays for himself of finds the open man. Not surprised that he was voted Offensive POY while Leading His Team To 30 Wins and the 4th Round of The Playoffs Avg. 18.6ppg

Evaluation:
Isaiah is a skilled SF that could end up being a very solid small college PnR prospect at a D2/D3 JUCO so he has room to grow into his full potential. Has a nice touch from 3 when his feet are set, skilled passer
and deceptive athlete who runs the floor well in transition. Defensively, he has the god given tools to be able to guard the 2-5 spots at the D2/D3 JUCO or NCAA D3 levels. This kids best is in front of him as he fills out physically and plays with more consistent effort on both ends. Has some tools you can't teach, and as a young Sr (17) his best is clearly in front of him.

Evaluation:
Super Quick PG who excels in the open court, does a great job of attacking the Paint and creating shots for himself or teammates when drawing help D. Moves well without the ball in his hands, and although he is undersized Braylen has a quick release in catch and shoot situations and creates enough space to get his shot off over bigger Guards. College Ready On Ball Defender that needs a Up-Tempo System that pushes it hard, and extends their Defensive Pressure. Small College Programs that play fast need to take a closer look at Braylen, he's a FIT!
