Players to Watch

Frank Jackson, PG, United States

Duke has a pair of higher-rated prospects for next season including Jayson Tatum and Harry Giles (who is still injured). However, no one had a better week of the McDonald's All-American Game than Frank Jackson, and he will look to continue his momentum in Portland. 

Jackson began the festivities by winning the Slam Dunk Contest, displaying his impressive athleticism to attack the basket. In the game itself, he showcased his shooting ability by going 5-of-7 from three-point range to help him score 19 points overall. He also has great vision and point guard skills, which will help the Blue Devils next season.

"You can’t just be one thing," Jackson said, per Joel Brigham of Basketball Insiders. "You can’t just be athletic; you’ve got be well-rounded offensively, and that’s something I’ve worked on big time and I think it will help me at the next level."

This has certainly been on display during the All-Star circuit and it has to get Duke fans excited about the possibilities next season.

As the co-MVP of the McDonald's All-American Game along with Frank Jackson, Josh Jackson also has plenty of talent to showcase at this upcoming event.

Jackson is one of the most athletic players in the class with the physicality necessary to get into the paint and finish at the rim. Of course, he is also a lot more than just his athleticism, as Jeff Borzello of ESPN noted during the last game:

This makes it no surprise Jackson has been heavily pursued on the recruiting trail, although he is yet to make a decision about his future. According to Eric Bossi of Rivals.com, that could finally come on Monday as he chooses between favorites Arizona, Kansas and Michigan State.

Considering his talent, this decision could greatly impact the entire 2016-17 college basketball season.

DeAndre Ayton, C, World

Unlike most of the other players at this event, DeAndre Ayton is a 2017 prospect and still needs another year of high school before even going to college. However, he certainly won't be overmatched by any of the older players in this game.

According to 247Sports composite rankings, Ayton is the No. 1 recruit in the class, even reaching consensus among the major recruiting services. This type of agreement doesn't happen often, especially during a junior season, so that should tell you what you need to know about the player's ability.

Sam Vecenie of CBS Sports also provided some context about the center's size:

While the seven-footer could easily be successful staying in the paint and being a force down low, he has shown the ability to step out and hit a jump shot, making him a terrifying matchup for anyone who tries to defend him.

You can expect a lot of dominant numbers from him over the next year and possibly longer until he faces some elite competition.

Udoka Azubuike, C, World

Another big-bodied player on the World team is Udoka Azubuike, a 6'11" player heading to Kansas next season.

The center got a late invite to the Nike Hoop Summit when Thon Maker and Lauri Markkanen were taken off the roster, but you can expect him to take advantage of his opportunity against some of the best in the world.

Jerry Meyer of 247Sports provided a quick look at the positives and negatives surrounding the big man:

Azubuike is imposing enough to get a lot of easy plays at the next level against smaller competition, the only question is if he can better develop his offensive game. He probably won't be asked to do much early for the Jayhawks, but his NBA future will depend on what he can do on that end of the court.
