Though it seems like the last LIVE period just occurred, another one is already upon us. Our Phenom Challenge will be a useful opportunity for various levels of college coaches to get out and see deserving high school prospects'whether juniors or unsigned seniors. While a ton of folks have noted the insane number of players in the portal, few seem to realize how much this is truly benefitting Division II, Division III, and even JUCO basketball. Programs falling within these confines are actually granted some wiggle room with their ability to pursue more talented kids than ever before. It's a natural trickle-down effect. That being said, high school prospects are rapidly turning into diamonds in the rough. Most kids are getting pushed a level lower than expected, but scholarships are still going out. Let's take a look at some players for college coaches to monitor during the upcoming weekend…
