Marietta, Georgia – On the Radar was back in Marietta, Georgia to host a the Sweet 16, the first NCAA Live Period of the year. This tournament highlighted noteworthy prospects from independent and shoe teams who are college ready or on the verge of becoming a true college prospect within the next few years.

2025 | Ben Abernathy | SEBA

2025 6’6″ Ben Abernathy continues to improve each weekend and has been deemed a stock riser heading into the summer. Abernathy is an active prospect that can find his way to score. SEBA utilizes Abernathy’s strengths of outside scoring and cleaning up inside. Abernathy positions himself well on the boards; fighting for positioning and rebounds against his opponents. Abernathy does well anticipating defensively in the full court press for steals or blocks and deflections inside.

 

2025 | Bryson Berry | Team Driven

2025 6’2″ guard Bryson Berry caught my eye at last year’s Sweet 16 and this year was no different. Berry has a way to make an immediate impact once he steps on the court with his aggressive play and eagerness to score. Berry makes quick reads offensively, using hesitation dribbles or a quick first step to get past his defender to the rim or for an outside shot. Berry handles the ball well with either hand and finishes crafty shots and floaters around the basket. Stock riser heading into these summer months.

 

2025 | Jah Chin | SWFL Hoops

2025 Jah Chin is an explosive guard that can score in bunches. Chin handles contact and pressure with ease and keeps his eyes set on the floor. Chin moves up the court well; either attacking his opponent or finding his post players inside. Chin is a solid on-ball defender that can come up with steals and deflections.

2025 | Kyler Fox | BCB

2025 6’8″ PF Kyler Fox is a name that has been trending as of late. The long, lanky prospect was noticed by quite a few evaluators this past weekend for his versatility on both ends of the court. Fox started the Live Period with 18 points dominating the paint inside, scoring effortlessly off drop steps and put-backs. Fox’s length on the defensive game impacted his opponents significantly with his ease of moving around the paint. Fox’s knowledge, understanding of the game, and high-level game will make him a prospect for coaches to keep an eye on this summer.

 

2025 | Miles George | SEBA

’25 Miles George is a lead guard who can score it in bunches. George scored 20 points in the win I saw; easily finding his way downhill and scoring around the basket. George facilitates well as a point guard but also finds open looks for himself around the perimeter and at the mid-range. George plays at a fast pace and as an on-ball defender makes himself tough to beat. George has had a promising spring and should garner more interest this summer.

 

2025 | Braedyn Gillespie | IBA

2025 6′ guard Braedyn Gillespie was a new prospect that stood out with his ability to score at will. Gillespie was consistently producing all weekend and his work ethic paid off. The lefty has a knack for scoring 3-pointers at a high level off the catch or a quick dribble to create space between his defender. Gillespie can provide an impact by being the primary ball handler or running the court to his spots in transition and demanding the ball. High-level scorer that is tough to stop once he gets going.
