The Hype Sports Winter Jam has become one of the Premier middle school basketball events in the Lone Star State. It is one of the 4 middle school events the staff covers on a yearly basis. We will continue to a look at how this class compares to previous classes at this point in their young careers. We will watch to track there development as you watch their names roll through TBB for next 5-6 years.
Cam Amboree, 2022 PG – Hardwork: Amboree shot the ball at a high clip from the perimeter. Has a quick trigger and averaged over 12 points at the Winter Jam.
Cason Wallace: The Younger brother of UTSA standout guard Keaton Wallace, Cason has a good feel, defends and shows a natural ability of putting the ball through the net.
Collin Smith, 2022 SF – Hardwork: Smith length and versatility was on display at the Winter Jam. Smith oozes with talent and his ceiling is high. When Smith elevates his game, Hardwork is a dangerous team to match up against.
PF Jaden Robinson, 2022 CF – Higher Goals: Robinson down the line could turn out to be one of the top Texas prospects in the 2022 class from this event. Can shoot it from beyond the arc, handle the ball with fluidity in the open court and is long.
CJ Ford, 2022 PG – Dallas Mustangs: Ford is Quick with the ball and produced high scoring totals and most notably against Team FOE. Ford was one of the best scoring guards at the Winter Jam.
Kamayua Blac, 2022 SF – Dallas Mustangs: Blac has a promising stroke from the perimeter and has range even past the three point line. Still needs to get tougher, but can turn out to be a TBB prospect once he enters high school.
Xavier Martinez, 2022 PG – Hardwork: Martinez produced at the semis and championship game. Xavier has some toughness to his game and made big time plays in pressure situations.
Kevin Garcia, 2022 PF – Hardwork Black: Garcia has slimmed down and has stretched his game. Garcia produced consecutive 20 point outings and although he still has ways to go, Garcia has shown improvement.
Isaiah Foster, 2022 PG – Team FOE: Foster is a young talented guard that is crafty with the basketball. Still developing as a floor leader but shows promise.
JD Legarde, 2022 PG – TSI: Legarde has grown in the past year. A Cream of The Crop Alum is Quick and developing into an efficient point guard.
Kobe Bratton, 2022 PG – TSI: Another Cream of The Crop Alum, Bratton has a good body for his age and scored off the bounce. A talented guard that has a high upside.
Omari Abor, 2022 CF – Team FOE: Abor is strong and knows how to carve out space in the paint. Shot the ball well from beyond the arc, connecting on multiple jumpers each contest the staff watched.
