Jaden

Bergeron

They say big Things come in Small Packages, well that is the case with Jaden as I thought he had the best Overall Showing at the Houston Camp, Started the Day Winning the Skills Challenge Showcasing his Shot Making Ability and ‘Skill’ Set, and followed that up by Winning the 1 on 1 Competition Which takes College Level ‘Will’ that it takes to play at the Next Level! Tough Matchup In PnR Action With His Ability to Shoot, Drive or Dish It and Does a Great Job of Reading the D and Taking What They Give Him. 3 Level Scorer that Would be a Late Steal for Programs That Play Fast and Set a Lot of Ball Screens.

Bennett

Blackerby

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!

Uriah

Boutte

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!

Skilled Stretch 4 That Is a Legit 6’8, Shoots Over 40% from Beyond the Arc & Battles Hard in the Paint When He Goes Down Low.

Aidan

Burns

Big Guard, High Motor, and Scholarship Level Shooter Who Had a Breakthrough Sr Season Leading Klein Collins to the 3rd Round of the Playoffs on Year after Finishing Middle of the Pack! Aidan Plays With Confidence, and Does a Great Job Moving Without the Ball to Get To His Spots and Knock Down Shots. He’s a Legit 6’3 and Shoots It over the Top of the D in Catch and Shoot Situations. I Really liked Aidan’s Game In Houston, and Was Sold after the Final Four Finale in SA. No Question a College Level 2 Guard That Would be a Late Steal For Programs that Shoot a Lot of 3s and Play Tough Man to Man HC D!

Projected Levels: NCAA D3+ / NAIA (Late Steal for High Academic Programs)

Justin

Burns

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.
