The 2025 watchlist has arrived!

As we start the last half of the 2021 summer AAU season, we have introduced the basketball community here in Missouri to our C/O 2025 watchlist players. As we all know player rankings are not an exact science but they offer players a place to be seen and promoted based on their overall skills and potential to improve by their senior year. This, even more, the case with this incoming freshmen class! The is a wide variety of talent within this young group and a lot of room for improvement. Some of these players will step into key roles for their teams and some may even be the leaders for their teams this coming fall.
