Adam Miller – Chicago, IL

PG | 6-foot-3 | 170 lbs | No. 24 overall

Memphis offered Adam Miller all the way back in 2017 and he has held fast as a top-25 prospect in the class ever since then. Although listed as a point guard, he is much more of a pure scorer than anything. He is highly athletic and already well-built for a 6-foot-3 guard. He finishes exceptionally well around the basket while his 3-point shot continues to develop.

He has not been the most efficient player on the EYBL circuit so far this year but he is still making a positive impact on the court. As one would expect given his national ranking, Miller has been targeted by several other high-major programs as of late. There has not been a ton of information regarding Miller’s recruitment but he is certainly one of the top players in the class.

EYBL Stats (8 games): 16.0 ppg (.353/.302/.816), 4.1 rpg, 2.1 apg


Kyree Walker – Phoenix, AZ

SF | 6-foot-5 | 200 lbs | No. 17 overall

One of the more college-ready players in the class, Kyree Walker is already well-built for a wing. He has a strong 6-foot-5 frame and is blossoming as a three-level scorer. Due to his size, he carves out space nicely for himself as a creator and is also a strong rebounder. Walker has an insane motor that seemingly never runs out and this helps him improve on the defensive end as well. He is growing continuing to refine his game in many different ways as the expectation is that he can be a multi-positional college player.

Walker does not seem to have any leaders in his recruitment at the moment, but Memphis is still involved. The Tigers are often discussed with regards to the talented wing and he should be a top priority for the program.
