Overtime Elite is back at it. Entering their sixth season, OTE has underwent constant expansion, now having nine teams in their league for high school-aged programs. Chipotle Nationals runner-up Dynamic Prep (Dallas, Texas) has joined the league, adding to a group of immensely talented players who are already capitalizing on their talents.
The first stop for Overtime Elite players for 2025-26 was the OTE Combine. Sponsored by Gatorade, the OTE Combine (more commonly known as OTE Pro Day) was a two day event at OTE’s state of the art facility in gorgeous Midtown Atlanta. Players were put through virtually the same exact drills they would at the NBA Combine, going through a series of drills, then wrapping things up with live 3-on-3 and 5-on-5 play. Twenty-seven of the 30 NBA teams were in attendance, along with over 100 D1 college coaches, providing a platform for players to take their exposure to new heights.
Having already profiled Jeremy Jenkins, Gabe Nesmith, and Tyran Frazier, here is a deeper look at some of the other intriguing juniors (2026 prospects) from the 2025 OTE Combine:
Ty Sutton, 6’1.5, PG, City Reapers
There wasn’t a player at the OTE Pro day that was shiftier than Sutton, a lead guard out of Philly. The junior possesses elite stop and go speed, makes elite reads out of pick and roll play, and will use his 37 inch vertical jump to finish over the top of you at the rim. While the class of 2027 is still continuing to shape itself, Sutton has firmly established himself in the upper echelon of point guards.
Clyde Walters, 6’7, SF, RWE
When I asked OTE Director of Player Development Corey Frazier if there were any under the radar guys who I should really focus on throughout the OTE Pro Day, he had one name: Clyde Walters. It was easy to see why, too. The Birmingham native is an absolute freak athlete, plays with a non stop motor on both ends, and is a rapidly developing 3-point shooter. Despite being the last signee to Rod Wave Elite, the lanky swingman has the potential to be one of the best when it is all said and done.
Howard Williams, 6’7, SF, City Reapers
One of the more experienced players of the group, Williams has been playing on the varsity level nationally since he was in middle school and has not looked back. The Oak Hill Academy transfer is a powerfully built wing,
Caleb Ourigou, 6’11, C, Cold Hearts
The most powerful big man of the OTE Combine was Ourigou, a big man from NYC via the Ivory Coast. Possessing a massive 261 pound frame and crazy wingspan, he was able to carve position down low on the block, control his area on the glass, and finish above the rim through contact. Ourigou is an old school big who asserts his presence in the paint and schools such as Syracuse, Illinois, UCLA, and Florida have already put scholarships on the table.
Anderson Diaz, 6’1, PG, Cold Hearts
One of the most competitive guards of the event, a Dominican lead guard by the way of New York City. The lefty has no shortage of flare with his handle, can finish with creativity with either hand at the rack, and obtains a massive amount of separation with his step back jumper. A consensus top-60 recruit, Anderson has already received offers from the likes of Syracuse, Auburn, UCLA, Arkansas, and a host of other BCS programs.
Brisun Hammermeister, 6’6, SF, Cold Hearts
Having missed a large part of the past year with a knee injury, it’s comeback season for Hammermeister. The Florida native is super bouncy off of either foot, is an explosive straight line driver, and is becoming a more consistent 3-point shooter. Still a bit under the radar, expect to see Brisun Hammermeister’s name come up in recruiting circles throughout the season with OTE.
