The unsigned senior tour of 2026 begins with the Florida Opening. Nearly every time slot was filled with seniors who made their presence known when they touched the floor. Below are 7 seniors who turned heads at the Florida Opening.

Grant Watkins - OCO - 2026

Watkins is a 6-foot-7 W/F who makes the game look natural. He has the type of athleticism that made his poster dunk look like it was in slow motion. There’s a ton of control to his game when the ball is in his hands. Watkins is a good athlete but prefers to use changes of speed to get by defenders. He has a functional handle that compliments his movement pattern. Watkins is capable of hitting shots in the mid range and the point line but his first priority is getting to the rim.

Chase Hibbard - Powerhouse Bulls - 2026

Hibbard plays the game like he’s been shot out of a cannon. The 6-foot-4 combo guard has the speed and first step to get downhill in a flash. Hibbard doesn’t create much separation but he’s tough enough to power through contact on the drive. He’s a good athlete with the burst to get to the rim and draw fouls. Hibbard got to the line more than four times a game. He plays with a high motor on both sides of the ball and moves really well without the ball.

Eric Glover - Mikel Brown Jr Gold - 2026

Glover is a combo guard with a sharp jump shot. He has the confidence to shoot with a hand in the face and the track record to back up his abilities to make tough shots. The 6-foot-2 combo guard is more scorer than facilitator at this point in his career. He can double as a floor space or a guy who can score off screens or isolation.

Mathias Cadiman - Razorbacks - 2026 

Cadiman is a 6-foot-6 Swiss Army knife on the defensive end of the floor. His length and physicality helps him guard up and down the lineup at the high school level. He’s a solid weak side and transition shot blocker. Cadiman proved he could get to the rim in the halfcourt despite having trouble finishing in the second game of the day. He’s also a good spot up shooter who can beat a closeout. 

Delijah McAlpin - OCO - 2026

If you’re looking for a 6-foot-8 forward who runs floors, finishes above the rim, and gives you rim protection, McAlpin is your guy. He’s a smooth player who's always lingering around the play for putbacks and rebounds. He’s comfortable finishing over bigger defenders and even has a knack for finishing at tough angles. Played on a team that ran little offense during their first tournament ever and still made an impact as an off ball presence with his effort and feel.

Lucas Barnes - Harris Athletics - 2026

Barnes is a 6-foot-6 point forward from Spain who was in the UMEC Real Valladolid Baloncesto system. Barnes is one of the rare bigger players who can grab the board, push it up court, and initiate the offense. He’s a good passer for the position and each pass is on time and on target. He lets the game come to him on both ends but you can see him influencing each possession he’s on the floor. Barnes plays at a controlled pace so you don’t notice he’s an above average athlete until he hits second gear.
