Amen Thompson, an adaptable guard from Overtime Elite, has been producing remarkable numbers with his mix of strength, quickness and playmaking abilities.

Another Overtime Elite wing player, Ausar Thompson, has been drawing attention with his quickness and scoring prowess. He has a fantastic combination of dribbling and shooting capabilities that make him an invaluable part of any team. Nick Smith, Jr., a freshman from Arkansas who has been battling a knee ailment but is still considered to be a promising prospect, has excellent ball-handling and shooting skills, as well as the ability to create plays. Smith is a top-five pick in all mock drafts.
