Having already taken a deep dive with the 2028 standouts, we’re going to take a more in-depth have a look at the highest 2029 and 2030 prospects from the 2025 Pangos All South Frosh/Soph Camp:
Alex Alexander, 6’10, PF, Mesquite HS (Texas), 2029
Upon first sight, you’ll assume that Alex Alexander is ready to play his first sport of faculty, not his first sport of highschool. The highly effective lefty has a bodily profile much like that of Timberwolves all-star Julius Randle on the identical stage and has the sport to match. The Co-MVP of the camp was unstoppable going downhill driving left, bullied smaller defenders on the block, and confirmed the within/exterior sport that you just search for in right this moment’s bigs. Thought-about by some to be the highest participant within the class of 2029 nationally, Alexander has already proven that he can dominate enjoying up in opposition to older competitors with Max Ranges Elite on the New Stability P32 League.
Mike Sorrell, 6’5, SG, Episcopal College of Dallas (Texas), 2029
Maybe the perfect shooter the occasion needed to provide, Mike Sorrell was the prototypical taking pictures guard who produces it doesn’t matter what scenario he’s in. The lights out shooter was capable of get to his three level pictures each off the bounce and shifting with out the ball, displaying a fast launch and excessive confidence when he let it fly. Our personal Ani Umana highlighted Sorrell on the Hoop DFW 60 Camp and he continued his upward trajectory by proving himself as the perfect shooter at Pangos All South.
DJ Parker, 6’6, SF, Kennemer Center College (Texas), 2030
Much like Alex Alexander, it’s really onerous to fathom that DJ Parker is simply coming into eighth grade. He’s already a sport altering athlete on each ends of the ground, mixing explosive leaping skill with excellent quickness for a younger swingman. Parker proved that he may maintain his personal in opposition to the older competitors as an elite finisher in transition, explosive straight line driver, and was sufficient of a menace as a shooter to maintain defenders trustworthy. Nonetheless tremendous early within the course of, DJ has all the instruments to be the following large title in line out of Texas powerhouse Duncanville.
Inheritor Jackson, 6’2, PG, Mansfield House College (Texas), 2030
One more tremendous gifted eighth grader the camp needed to provide was Inheritor Jackson, a brilliant athletic combo guard. The Mansfield product was an elite defender on the perimeter, will dunk on you on the break, and is a gradual 3-point shooter. Having already performed varsity as a seventh grader, Jackson already holds an N.C. State provide and has firmly established himself as one of many higher 2030 lead guards within the nation at this level.
Felix Okam, 6’9, PF, Grand Prairie HS (Texas), 2029
A participant who I admittedly had by no means heard of going into the camp, I walked away with Felix Okam’s title etched in my thoughts. The lengthy armed large was elite operating the ground, performed with a motor that didn’t cease on each ends of the court docket, and confirmed uncooked expertise dealing with the basket attacking with both hand. Okam has been making his title well-known in Texas and will likely be doing it sooner somewhat than later nationally.
Vijay Keshaav, 6’2, PG/SG, Frisco Memorial (Texas), 2029
A younger level guard with measurement, Vijay Keshaav has been enjoying a excessive degree for fairly a while now and continued that pattern at Pangos All South. The freshman has an array of artistic finishes on the rack, will end on the break with some dunks in model, and is a knockdown 3-point shooter. Keshaav already holds a suggestion from Mississippi State and has supplanted himself amongst the elite in Texas’ 2029 class early on.
