Blaze Johnson is the youngest player at OTE this year, only 15 years old, but he looked pretty advanced for his age with his shooting and defensive prowess, along with a mature, serious approach. Good size for a guard already at 6'4, 189 pounds.

Gabe Nesmith has one of the most intriguing physical profiles among prospects in the OTE system and showed impressive flashes of talent with the ball. Looks to have a ways to go with his defense and feel for the game, but time is on his side at 16 years old.

OTE coaches are super high on the long-term upside and intangibles of just-turned 16-year-old Kam Mercer. Physical tools are clearly legit and showed some intriguing flashes of two-way versatility, but he is still at an early stage with his shooting and overall skill level.

First real look at 17-year-old Dominican guard Anderson Diaz at OTE Combine. Like how naturally he handles it, and the pace, scoring instincts and finishing creativity. Also showed some defensive flashes. Still evolving with his shooting/passing/decision-making.

Good to get another look at 6'5, 2026 class wing Parker Robinson at OTE Combine. Ticks a bunch of boxes college coaches are looking for with his shooting, athleticism, toughness and feel. Has made some nice strides since I first saw him with OTE two years ago.

Spent the day at the OTE Combine with over 100 NBA scouts and college coaches. Best I've seen Taylen Kinney shoot, both in drills and live action. The 5-star, 6'3ish PG plays with toughness, pace, strong ball-handling, scoring instincts, and creativity.
