We've been in direct contact with CG Justin Curry - Noblesville HS

Eric Bossi on Curry from the NCAA Basketball Academy

Justin Curry, SG, 2026- A two guard from Indiana who already holds offers from Kent State and Toledo, Curry impressed with his aggressive nature and balanced game. He attacked the basket, showed willingness to shoot the jumper off the dribble or from deep. He did a nice job of sharing the ball and had a great motor while we watched.

Adam Finkelstein on the NCAA Academy and a couple of names that may have IU interest.

Luke Ertel, Indiana Elite

After spending the grassroots season playing up with Indiana Elite's U17 team, Ertel made the move back to play with the U16 squad last week and his presence could have been the difference-maker in their championship run. It was also an opportunity for Ertel to be aggressive and show more of his individual offense after running alongside the likes of Braylon Mullins, Malachi Moreno and Trent Sisley for the last five months. He did just that, giving Indiana Elite a critical piece in the backcourt with his assertiveness, toughness, and overall presence. He plays strong with the ball, has a good skill-set, is a consistent floor-spacing threat from three and is particularly effective with his pull-up. On the recruiting front, he landed an offer from Butler, where both his parents went to school, last month and added offers from Purdue and Wake Forest this week.

 

Deron Rippey Jr, New Heights Lightning

The New York based program culminated their season with a run to the finals of the 10th grade championship. Rippey, who has been the leader of this squad from start to finish, continued to show more growth in his game. He's added some noticeable muscle mass to his frame in recent months and is also becoming a more consistent shooting threat from the perimeter. He's a well-known competitor, defender, and dribble drive threat. He's already one of the highest rated point guards in the national junior class, and his recruitment reflects that status with programs like St. John's, Illinois, Villanova, Georgia Tech, Rutgers, Maryland and Michigan all making him an early priority while the likes of UConn and Arkansas are also involved.

Chronister had a hug weekend at NXT a couple of weeks ago and now his name’s everywhere. Not like he wasn’t already a big deal, but, man, has he taken off.

Kind of looks like Alex Karaban looked in HS. Doubt he’ll fill out quite that much but he’s a better run/jump athlete. Gonna be a really good get for anyone.

It looks like Tiller picked up 3 predictions for Kansas last night...

If you are going by a post on another site that was misleading. It was in the Tiller thread but if you opened it up it was for another PF from Houston. I guess the poster put it there because it might effect Tillers recruitment for KU.
