A look at Real Madrid’s Fabian Kayser getting loose an hour before the NextGen EuroLeague Championship. The 6’8” German leveraged his positional size, instincts, and playmaking vision to stuff the stat sheet throughout the group stage. One of Europe’s top 2009-born prospects.

Popped down to Illinois Tech to watch deep sleeper, Milos Dugalić, get some training in. The 6’9” 205 lbs. 🇷🇸/🇺🇸 late-bloomer lefty forward averaged 17.2 PTS, 12.4 REB, 2.4 AST, 1.6 STL, 1.6 BLK at the DIII level this season. Garnering some early NBA pre-draft workout interest.

Alabama’s Jarin Stevenson had some nice moments at the Tatum Elite Camp — most notably a quick-rising dunk off a cut over Paolo Banchero that may have induced some head taps. 6’10” in shoes w/ a 7-foot wingspan and real floor-spacing potential. Doesn’t turn 19 until October.

Intrigued by the long-term potential of Taylen Kinney — easy to see why he’s building a reputation as one of the top guards in the class of 2026. Showed promising flashes in Treviso and is excelling here at the SPIDA Elite Camp as the second youngest prospect in attendance.

Projected top five pick, Matas Buzelis, performed well in today’s athletic testing portion of the NBA Draft Combine. Showed his explosiveness w/ a 38” max vertical leap. Also moved quite well in the pro lane drill, finishing in 10.73 seconds (a top five time so far).

Spent some time watching Iowa’s Bennett Stirtz training in Chicago for the upcoming NBA Draft Combine. Clearly in great shape and shoots the cover off the ball. The 6’4” point guard’s smarts, skills, instincts, and steadiness should appeal to NBA teams drafting in the teens.

Spent some time watching St. John’s big man, Zuby Ejiofor, working out during combine week. Repping out his three-point stroke, which has shown signs of improvement. The Big East Player of the Year should draw serious interest from good teams in the back end of the first round.

Yaxel Lendeborg was by far the best player on the floor across both Sweet Sixteen games in Chicago last night. 23 PTS, 12 REB, 7 AST, 2 STL on an 83.6 TS% while finishing +20 in a win over Alabama. The 1st Team All-American does a little bit of everything at a high level on both ends, with few holes in his game. The off-the-dribble threes, point-forward playmaking, long outlet passes, and power/patience as a finisher really stood out tonight. On a late development curve, so still clearly getting much better at 23 years old.

Lincoln Memorial’s Elyjah Freeman has quickly established himself as the most intriguing prospect at the Division II level. The late-blooming 18-year-old freshman wing is averaging 18.6 PTS, 8.7 REB, 2.1 AST, 1.4 STL on blistering efficiency w/ very high-end athletic flashes. High-major talent w/ plenty of developmental runway who warrants long-term tracking by NBA scouts.

Hard to overstate Yaxel Lendeborg’s impact in an absolute shellacking of Tennessee. 27 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal, 0 turnovers in a 30+ point Elite Eight win. Imposes his will on both ends while playing within his means, bringing competitive fire, and bypassing good shots to create great ones. Incredible feel and IQ for a powerful 6’10” prospect who’s so late to the game. Chance to make history in Indianapolis.

Coen Carr’s two-way dynamism was on full display in a win over Louisville. 21 points, 10 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 steal to help lift Sparty to the Sweet 16. Made great use of his nuclear athleticism as a backline lob threat, defensive rebounder, and on the break. Showed fight and discipline keeping drivers in front, staying home on fakes, then being quick off his feet for contests/blocks. Even knocked down a couple of confident corner threes, addressing an area for improvement on a big stage.

Brayden Burries’ timely scoring (21 points on 10 shots) against Houston in the Big 12 Tournament championship game helped Arizona take home the hardware. The strong-bodied 6’5” freshman guard knows how and when to attack defensive vulnerabilities. Burries' patience, shotmaking prowess, and ability to play through contact have been invaluable to the Wildcats’ offense, perfectly complementing veteran backcourt mate, Jaden Bradley. Projected top ten pick who could really solidify his standing with a strong March Madness run on a team with championship aspirations.

Keaton Wagler outdueled Bennett Stirtz to will Illinois to their first Final Four since 2005. Dropped a game-high 25 points with bevy of downhill spin moves, showing improved physicality bumping off defenders and maintaining balance for coordinated soft-touch finishes. Even threw in a nasty Penny Hardaway-esque counter, sending his defender flying into the baseline and creating a ridiculous amount of space for a step back three. One of the best stories in college basketball, ascending from unheralded recruit to the clear top dog on a Final Four title contender. Potential top five pick.
