We continue to progress through the teams at the Phenom Prep Showcase, and one team that impressed me was Combine Regional, a team that I believe that should have the attention of college coaches.' There are quite a few prospects that will be talked about down the road but should be names you are learning about now.

Of course, when you look at that team, 2023 Clinton Efinda is one of the first names that pops up, as the UMBC commit certainly proved himself once again to be a force on the court.  But then you have players like 2024 Jacob Brandly, 2025 Yohan Gutierrez, 2025 CJ Purdie, and others that could be interesting prospects.

Brandly is one that we talked about earlier, as this is a 6'6 forward that continues to create mismatches on the court with his smooth and consistent shot-making from the outside but also operating well down in the paint.' 2025 Yohan Gutierrez captures your eye with his 6'7, long frame to go along with a developing skill set.' He does a great job in showing touch and being able to knock down shots from a variety of levels on the court, and he continues to make progress with his game.' 2025 CJ Purdie has popped up more for people, as the 6'1 guard has shown over and over to be a big threat from the perimeter with his range.'

Then players like 2025 Dylan Craven really impressed with his ability to find his teammates and facilitate, 2023 Abrulrahman Helwa is a player that can make plays and finish well, and 2024 Logain Caissie was able to be an offensive weapon on the court as well.

Overall, Combine Regional is a very interesting team and seems to go a bit under the radar, but it is time to start looking more at the talent they bring to the court.
