Kingston Land 6-6 2025 Mason Middle School (OH) I was given a heads up by an Ohio area scout before going to check him out. He did not disappoint at all. Was the only 2025 playing up with the Midwest Basketball Club 15U 3SSB squad. You would never know if you didn’t have a roster. Advanced offensive game to match his long athletic frame. Glides around the court easily and plays at his own pace. That maturity is something you don’t see often from a player this young.
Warren Keel 5-10 2025 Commonwealth Academy (MA) Missed getting my program early Friday so I began watching without a lot of background. When I watched this point guard compete defensively with a top notch Midwest Basketball Club 17U 3SSB unit. I had hunch this prospect might have been playing up a grade level. I never thought he would playing up three grade levels! Efficiently ran the point for a Mass Rivals unit that played a gauntlet of a schedule on the weekend. Never backed down one inch showing a high level of competitiveness. Has sturdy frame already. Would help to get taller but doesn’t need to do any work on his frame. Already holds a UMass offer. The future is very bright for this prospect
Kur Teng Kur Teng 6'4" | SG Bradford Christian | 2024 State #37 Nation NLG 6-4 2024 Bradford Christian Academy (MA) (pictured at top of article) Like his teammate Keel. Teng was playing up more than one age division with Mass Rivals. Bouncy and long Teng did most of his damage at the rim. Assertive around the basket with quick elevation. Good ball handler and used a quick first step to get to the cup with ease. Obviously well coached. Plays for New England legend Scott Hazelton in the regular season. Oldest player on this list but might have the most upside due to athletic profile.
Ethan Greenberg 6-5 2025 Centerville (OH) Add another to the list of strong players coming out of the Centerville program. A strong player for any age with well schooled advanced footwork. I was impressed by his Friday night performance against a good and big Team Ten Jabari Parker squad. Posted a 30 piece. You don’t do that by accident. Has had a huge summer and is stepping into an excellent developmental environment.
Braeden Holder 5-9 2025 Warren De La Salle (MI) Like this entire list is played up a division on the weekend. In Holder’s case played up two grade levels for the Michigan Goonies 2023 group. Steady ball handler who handled pressure very well. I was impressed with how rose the moment in a close loss to Miami Basketball Club (IN). It’s a cliche but plays like a player who has been around the game a long time. Younger brother of Linden Holder Linden Holder 6'0" | PG De La Salle | 2021 State MI one of Michigan’s top players last year who will be heading to Northwood (MI). Holder is going to have to break through a deep Pilot backcourt to make a name for himself. If he plays like he did this past weekend he should have no problem.
