Scouting the Future

College coaches are taking advantage of the recruiting window that runs from Thursday through Sunday, using the showcase to evaluate prospects in person. Among the coaches expected to be present are Indiana University’s head coach Darian DeVries and his assistants.

The first batch of games is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. Eastern and will continue until roughly 11:30 p.m., offering a full slate of matchups that highlight some of the nation’s most coveted talent.

Among the standout performers is 2027 center Lewis Uvwo of Prolific Prep (FL), who was recently named co‑MVP at the 2026 Pangos All‑American Camp. He will be joined by guards King Gibson, Paul Osaruyi, Malachi Jordan and several other highly rated prospects from programs across the country.

The event serves as a crucial checkpoint for recruits aiming to catch the eye of NCAA programs, with many top high schools and prep schools converging in Nevada to showcase their players.
