Duncanville High School was the landing spot for the Under Armour Next Combine Series. In it’s third year of existence, Under Armour travels across America in the Spring/Summer to identify the top rising freshmen. In their stop to the DFW, texasboysbasketball.com was on the scene to locate for our own sake what the 2022 class has to bring to the table.
Cason Wallace, 2022 CG: Wallace was one, if not the best guard performer at the camp. A prospect that we have seen excel playing above his age group and at Duncanville did more of the same.
Mark Mitchell, 2022 CF (MO): Mitchell was the best prospect in the camp as his makeup shows all the signs of a big time D1 prospect in the future. Mitchell exploited mismatches and scored inside and out.
Nick Smith, 2022 SG (AR): You could argue who performed better between Cason Wallace and Nick Smith and both guards would provide strong arguments. A smooth guard that scores the ball at a high level.
Adam Stewart, 2022 C: Stewart continues to keep getting better as the developing big man showcased parts of his game that we didn’t see before. He still has ways to go, but his size and progressions each year makes the staff believe the Cream of The Crop Alum will be a big time player when it’s all said and done.
Emma Zuberu, 2022 C: Another big man that has a chance to be really good when it’s all said and done, Emma Zuberu impacted the game on both ends of the floor and was a top 5 player in the camp.
Jeremiah Johnson, 2022 PG (OK): Johnson was productive in the games at the UA Next Combine. He can shoot it from deep and the crafty guard out of Oklahoma showed a lot of promise.
Austin Nunez, 2022 PG: Nunez had an up and down day but when he got in a rythym he showcased his ability to score and facilitate. Nunez has been one of the top guards we have seen in his class in Texas.
Dallas Hobbs, 2022 PG: We like what Hobbs can bring to the table, and when he let the game come to him and not force the issue so much, he looked good. The staff will continue to keep track of Hobbs throughout the process.
Cameron Amboree, 2022 PG: Another guard that struggled to consistently find a rhythm in games but Amboree has deep range on his jumper, can handle it and has shown the staff his ability to put the ball through the hole and produce.
Noah Shelby, 2022 PG: Shelby had a real solid outing. Noah can really shoot it as the sharpshooting guard looks to make strides in his ability to run a team.
Taj Manning, 2022 CF (MO): Manning was a tough cover for opposing forwards as his motor and ability to score inside and out made him a standout at Duncanville HS.
Cameron Crockett, 2022 Wing: We have been high on Crockett in the past but the talented wing out of Houston left us wanting more. Ability is there but we think the ceiling is high for Crockett.
