OTR Hoops: Who to Watch at the Sweet 16 – May 11, 2025

The NCAA live period is ahead of us this weekend. Which players on the OTR Circuit should college coaches be aware of? Here is a first look at players with momentum heading into this weekend’s event.

Malik Gillespie, Warner Robins All-Stars OTR, 2026

Gillespie is one of the top prospects on the OTR Circuit and will be a hot target all spring & summer. The midseason MVP candidate already has offers from Division-1 programs like Georgia State, Arkansas-Pine Bluff, and Presbyterian. Don’t be surprised to see more offers come down the pike as several collegiate programs have confirmed to watch him this weekend.

Karez Demory, AJ Bouye, 2026

Demory recently picked up a SWAC offer from Southern University and is looking to add more. The shifty lead guard is an above average facilitator but is at his best putting the ball in the hole. We fully expect him to gain more traction this weekend.

Rowan Woodrich, Devin Butts Elite, 2027

Woodrich has burst onto the scene in a major way this spring. At 6-foot-7, he possesses a versatile skillset that’ll make him a priority prospect on the recruiting
trail. We’ve added the OTR Circuit midseason MVP candidate to our offer watchlist ahead of this weekend’s Sweet 16 live event.

Chase Dupree, Warner Robins All-Stars, 2026

Dupree is averaging 19.6 points per game at OTR events this spring and has created a buzz going into the first evaluation period. We’d highly recommend jotting this name in your notepads for reference this travel ball season.
