By now most people are familiar with which recruits you need to keep an eye on when it comes to Arizona hoops recruiting, but with the lone live evaluation period beginning tonight there are going to be prospects all over the country. We'll look at a few of the bigger tournaments taking place this weekend and highlight some of the recruits you should be watching as things unfold over the next few days.
EYBL #1 - Sacramento (Nike)
The first EYBL session is always an entertaining one, and with only one live weekend this spring there should be plenty of coaches who spend most of their time this weekend in Sacramento. Sean Miller will spend time watching numerous recruits this weekend at the first EYBL event, and a number of UA targets all play for one team.
The Elite Youth Basketball League has become the top travel league on the grassroots circuit, and this year is no different. One of the top teams year in and year out is the Oakland Soldiers, which has featured plenty recent Arizona players as of late. This year's Oakland Soldiers roster is loaded with UA targets led by five-star big man Ivan Rabb. Joining Rabb on this year's roster is fellow five-star big man Stephen Zimmerman and 2016 point guard Derryck Thornton, Jr., from Henderson (Nev.) Findlay Prep.
Some other teams and names to keep an eye on include Miles Simon's Cal Supreme squad with players like MJ Cage, and Cody Riley. And also Thon Maker of Boo Williams.
Adidas Gauntlet #1 - Dallas
Much like Nike has the EYBL, Adidas has its Gauntlet and the first stop on of the tour will be Dallas, Texas this weekend. There will be plenty of names to keep an eye on at the event, but it will be led by four-star guard Justin Simon. The big-time Arizona recruit will once again suit up for his Gamepoint squad based out of San Diego, but he won't be the only Arizona recruit in action in Dallas.
The DreamVision squad featuring UA commit Tyler Dorsey as well as targets Ray Smith and Chase Jeter will be in action in Dallas this weekend as well. As will the Colorado Hawks featuring 2016 recruit De'Ron Davis.
Jayhawk Invitational (Under Armour)
When it comes to the Under Armour event in Olathe, Kan., the big name to watch out of that event will be Chance Comanche. The five-star big man will play with Earl Watson Elite at the event.
There will be plenty more recruits who come up throughout the weekend, but these are some to watch in the events they're playing in this weekend.
