Idris Abubakar | 2026 | 6’9 F | Colorado Magic/Accelerated Prep

High-energy forward who makes his presence felt on both ends. Scores efficiently inside, rebounds and runs the floor with purpose, and blocks shots at a high rate. Finished above the rim all day today. @aliyu_i_dogo

[SouthsideHoops @southside_hoops]

Cherif Diallo | 2026 | 6’4 G | Colorado Magic / Accelerated Prep

Slashing combo guard who gets downhill with ease. Tough to contain in the open floor and finishes well through contact. Uses his court vision to create for teammates. @CherifDiallo07

[SouthsideHoops @southside_hoops]

Naoto Hauet | 2026 | 6’1 G | Colorado Magic / Accelerated Prep

Scoring guard who gets to the rim and finishes creatively through traffic. Slithery with great body control, adjusts mid-air to avoid shot blockers. Knocked down the three and flashed sneaky athleticism. @HauetNaoto

💡A true stock-riser this weekend, MO’s effectiveness, production and consistency each game shined through. The 🇬🇳 native used a blend of nimbleness and power to convert in the paint, going through or around opponents. His high motor shows up on the glass, where he routinely high-points rebounds. Displaying a mature, low-mistake approach to the game, he was able to lead his team to an undefeated (4-0) weekend, establishing himself on the national radar as a result
