Acquired again house to the Lone Star State and I wished to additional break down what I noticed on the 2025 Pangos All-American Camp.
This yr’s camp had a strong group of gamers, and it was an area the place a couple of guys put themselves in one other tier nationally. On this article, I spotlight how the contributors from Texas performed in Las Vegas. Let’s dive proper in.
Texas Gamers At Pangos
Bryson Howard, 2026 6’5 SG/SF – Frisco Heritage/Nike ProskillsThe CO-MVP of the High 30 All-Star Sport, Howard, nationally, is one in all, if not the largest riser in 2026. An athletic southpaw who makes performs from all over the place. On the glass, ending, plus group and particular person defender. He was a standout in video games the place he wasn’t getting the ball thrown to him a lot, and that spoke louder to me than anything. He recovered rebounds and ignited breaks, was an ample off-ball cutter, and made athletic performs within the open court docket. Try extra Bryson Howard protection on the “Discipline Of 68 Subsequent Gen” Pod this week!
Trae Nunn, 2026 6’4 SG/SF – Waxahachie/3D Empire Puma Pro16Didn’t make any of the All-Star Video games, however I did assume Nunn had a strong week. Nothing spectacular, however I assumed he tried to play the precise manner. Made spot-up threes and completed performs as a shooter. One small element of his recreation that I like is his capacity to display. He created open seems for himself as a popper on ball screens, and even when he cuts, he makes contact with the assistance defender, which will get different individuals open. Nunn is aware of methods to play, and despite the fact that he didn’t get the quantity of pictures we usually see, I used to be impressed by how efficient he was as a ball-mover, shooter and screener.
Reese Alston, 2027 6’2 PG – Second Baptist/Cooz Elite Puma Pro16Alston was actually good this weekend. Behind Howard, in my view, he was the most effective Texas performer from Pangos. Reese was a no brainer for the High 30 Sport. Shifty with the deal with, he has a large quantity of craft to his recreation, however one factor to notice for him is how he initiates contact to create area on drives with euro steps. He was good at this in Kansas Metropolis on Memorial Day Weekend as nicely, when he visitor performed for Houston Hoops 17U. As soon as he creates an angle to assault, he is aware of when to activate a euro step to both evade the defender or bump him to generate area. It’s spectacular to see a rising junior (that’s nowhere near how sturdy he will likely be) to try this constantly vs older and larger gamers.
Cam Lomax, 6’1 PG – Frisco Heritage/Drive Nation EYBL:Cam was fairly good the primary two days of camp. Scored it with strong effectivity and dotted guys in transition and half-court. He took what the protection gave him and was making the precise play for probably the most half. Tuesday, he didn’t play nicely, however I assumed Lomax this week was good within the quantity of minutes and touches he bought.
Christian Gibson, 2026 6’4 SG – Mayde Creek/Houston Hoops EYBLWe talked about Gibson among the many Sunday standouts, and he gave extra of the identical on Monday which led him to a High 60 Sport choice. Scores it, assured, and loves the pull-up jumper. Shot choice might not at all times be the most effective, however you may inform he’s unfazed by heavy contests and has a brief reminiscence (hell, possibly no reminiscence) on misses.
Bryson Dixon, 2026 6’4 SF/SG – The Colony/Legynds EYCLPlays so onerous and with a imply streak. Dixon made the Cream of the Crop High 60 Sport. Rebounds like somebody who’s 6’8 as a substitute of 6’4. Dixon was a play-maker in transition, throwing lobs and advancing the ball to the open man. He doesn’t quit on a play on both finish, and the mixture of all these traits is what makes him a D1 prospect. I really feel assured his offensive talent set will come alongside in some unspecified time in the future in his enjoying profession, however when he performs inside his strengths, he helps himself so much.
Dawson Battie, 2027 6’8 PF – St. Marks/Southern Ties Puma Professional 16Dawson made the High 30 recreation, and there wasn’t any hesitation from the voting panel that he belonged on there. Made spot-up threes, completed above the rim on put-backs, and confirmed a reasonably fast second leap as nicely. Dawson continued to point out a reliable inside-out recreation and is somebody good sufficient to know when and the place to execute on dimension or athletic benefit.
