Towo is overrated as hell. Soliman and HYM are surefire lottery pick i think. And then the others have chances to be picked.

I was extremely disappointed by what he showed this summer at the U17 World Cup.

None of the scouts I talk to like ATN. It's fair to say that he hasn't shown enough improvement over the past year, combined with his lack of size that is the biggest issue.

And what about Grimke’s son?

This list only includes players currently playing in France.

From the 2008-born cohort, there is also Cameron Houindo, who could be drafted in 2027.

He moved to Slovenia to play and excelled in the youth ranks last year, earning MVP honors at the ANGT in Ulm and subsequently at the Basketball Without Borders camp in Los Angeles.
