Rising Stars Shine at Peach Jam
The Nike EYBL Peach Jam in Georgia has become a proving ground for the next wave of elite talent, and this year two Arkansas commitments are making headlines.
Davion Thompson, a five‑star guard, is averaging 20 points, 4.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds while shooting 42.9% from three‑point range for Meanstreets, a team that sits 0‑3 in the tournament.
Ourigou’s Impact in the Paint
Caleb Ourigou, a four‑star big man, is contributing 5.7 points, 9.7 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game for NY Rens, whose record stands at 1‑2 after a triple‑overtime victory over the Florida Rebels in which he grabbed 11 rebounds and a block.
A New Chapter for Arkansas
Both players are slated to reclassify to the 2026 class and join the Razorbacks this season, a move that head coach John Calipari has been tracking closely alongside assistant Troy Fason.
Their arrivals promise to bolster Arkansas’s backcourt and frontcourt depth, giving the program a boost as it looks to compete in the SEC and beyond.
