OTR Hoops: CP3 Camp 2028 Standouts – August 29, 2025

BERMUDA RUN, N.C .— The annual CP3 Rising Stars camp is a showcase for some of the best underclassmen from across the country. We had boots on the ground and will start our coverage with a look at some of the standout rising sophomores in attendance.

Baer Bailey, Forward: Sometimes forwards have to make things happen for themselves at camps. Guards tend to dominate, but luckily for Bailey, he’s skilled enough to make things happen at his position. His start to this fall has been solid. Between our Breakout camp and the CP3 Rising Stars camp, Bailey has shown the ability to consistently knockdown the 3-ball at 6-foot-8. He has a deftness with the ball as a handler that’s advanced for his size and age. He made the 2028 Top 40 game at the end of the weekend.

Benji Berrouet, Forward: I caught bits and pieces of Berrouet throughout the weekend. It seemed like every time I looked over at the court he was on, he was making some kind of play. He’s a skilled 6-foot-6, 6-foot-7, big creator. He has a good feel for the game. Berrouet finishes everything around the rim with skill more than explosive athleticism. He can score out to the 3-point line and put the ball in the floor well enough to drive to the basket through traffic in the halfcourt.

Braxton Bogard, Forward: Rebounding, rebounding, rebounding. That’s what the lasting impression of Bogard remains now that the dust has settled after camp. He has a nose for the ball and has a fundamentally sound approach to cleaning the glass. He’s a forward with enough skill to grab and go too. On offense, he made plays both around the basket and on the perimeter. He has more room to grow offensively as well. He looks like a player that we’ll be hearing plenty about in the future.

Will Brunson, Wing: Brunson had some bright flashes. Around 6-foot-6, he found plenty of success on drives and showed ambidextrous finishing at the rim. He passes the eye test for a wing with solid length and size. Just a guy to remember for the future.

Antoine Caughman, Guard: A lot of players have ups and downs at individual player camps like this. Caughman was steady and consistent throughout though. He did a little bit of everything. A swiss-army-knife type. He hit shots, scored on drives to the rim. He plays with power, control and poise on offense. He also made plenty of plays on defense and was an active rebounder. He checked a ton of boxes.

Jeremiah Evans, Forward: Evans has heaps of potential. He’s more prospect than anything else right now, but he’s shown tremendous potential with athleticism and mobility. He’s effective on both ends of the floor around the basket. Evans protects the rim, plays with good energy, and finishes plays at the basket. He’s been garnering plenty of intrigue lately and for good reason.

Darren Ford, Guard: Ford has an aesthetically pleasing game. An easy scorer, he plays a smooth offensive game. Ford scored it from all three levels, but was especially effective with his jumper. He made shots off the catch and off the dribble frequently throughout the weekend. He uses a stronger frame to create opportunities for himself on drives.

Josh Lindsay, Guard: There were plenty of athletic guards in attendance, and Josh Lindsay was among the best of them. A fantastic leaper, Lindsay, glides through the air when he takes off.  The Louisville native was at his best when playing above the rim or making athletic layups, but flashed scoring versatility with multi-level shotmaking throughout the weekend too.

CJ Moore, Wing: Moore had nice spurts offensively, but he was the best dirty-work player in the gym. Coaches often praise players that defend and rebound as their favorites, and Moore did those things as well or better than everyone. He has lockdown potential on the perimeter with plus length, athleticism and effort. He’s already ahead of the curve in those aspects of the game. He’s a name to know in the south for this class.

Brady Pettigrew, Guard (Pictured at Top): Undoubtedly the 2028 MVP, Pettigrew was mighty impressive on Saturday—he was only able to play one day. He was at his best when using his athleticism to get by his man and to the rim. Pettigrew primarily brought a dunk-everything mentality that resulted in a number of highlights. He also showed more breadth to his game than athleticism with some shot making as well. Pettigrew picked up an offer from Florida State after the weekend.

Infinite Sincere-AmenRa, Guard: Sincere-AmenRa was electric over the weekend. His ability to score on all levels was unrivaled throughout camp. Sincere-AmenRa can rattle off points in a hurry when he’s on a hot streak. A quick athlete, capable of creating for himself, Sincere-AmenRa found a lot of success off the dribble. He especially showed an aptitude for being able to make tough shots and shots with plenty of range.

Abraham Taiwo: Taiwo was a walking highlight reel over the weekend. The 6-foot-7 forward aggressively sought the rim. He was especially dangerous in transition. Taiwo runs the floor well and has explosive movements. Dunk after dunk, there was little resistance against him when he got around the basket.
