2026 5’11 Kenan Dixon – Dixon is one that had a very good two weeks, and should be a name to really watch more in the Class of 2026. The one thing you can’t deny about this young man is how well he shoots the ball and how deadly he can be from deep. Time after time, he was knocking down shots, but at the Phenom Hoops LIVE, he was also able to show more of his diverse game.
What Was Said:
“2026 Kenan Dixon (Upward Carolinas) has built a dominant scoring reputation off of optimizing his skillset and patterns, always knows where he’s at on the floor and sprints to the corner in transition, one of the most natural and rhythmic offensive prowesses.”
“2026 Kenan Dixon (Upward Stars Harris) has come out HOT to start the day. A guard that has a ton of confidence in his shotmaking from the perimeter. Has multiple threes and a smooth fluid release from deep.”
2026 5’10 Ahmad Savage – Savage is another young guard to keep tabs on. The Mallard Creek guard has continued to build on his game and brings an aggressive mentality to the floor. He is able to be a strong presence on both ends, sees the floor well, is a strong ball-handler and leader, and is able to put pressure offensively with his quickness.
What Was Said:
“2026 Ahmad Savage (Upward Carolinas) provides quality game management and distribution, tight handle and keeps the ball protected with the ability to separate and create space under pressure to see the floor, good decision maker in the pick ‘n roll set-up.”
