The Pangos Frosh/Soph Camp circuit has come to an end. With stops in L.A., Dallas, Chicago, and Dallas complete, the tour showcasing the nation’s best for 2028 and beyond concluded in Philadelphia. Held just across the border at the gorgeous NBN Academy in Wilmington, Delaware, the 2025 All East Frosh/Soph Camp delivered no shortage of size and even drew stars out.
Philadelphia 76ers All-Star and Pangos alum Tyrese Maxey was in the building just after a game the night prior, and it was easy to see why. Event founder Dinos Trigonis brought in talent from 16 states and Canada, assembling a loaded field that blended size, refined skill, and a few remarkably talented middle schoolers under one roof.
With past alums such as Kyle Anderson, Jonathan Kuminga, Derrick Jones, and Cole Anthony at the All-East camp, you’re bound to see NBA players coming out of each year’s rendition. Prime, Athlete AI, and Spalding all jumped on board as title sponsors to align with one of the premier independent events in the country that has hosted future NBA talent.
We have already examined the top overall performers from the 2025 Pangos All East Frosh/Soph Camp and will now take a look at the better 2029 and 2030 talent that the event had to offer:
Emmanuel Ouedraogo, 6’10, C, Wilson Academy (Georgia), 2030
Just an eighth grader, Emmanuel Ouedraogo showed that he could hold his own at the rim with anyone at Pangos All East. He was an outstanding rim protector against older competition, finished through contact at the rim, and showed his mobility en route to a Co-MVP performance in the Top 30 Creme of the Crop game. Ouedraogo will be playing on the varsity level on the Grind session, where he will continue to show that he’s one of the best bigs in the class of 2030.
Flory Kuminga, 6’6, SF/PF, The Patrick School (NJ), 2029
The younger brother of Golden State Warriors starter Jonathan Kuminga is following in his brother’s footsteps as an elite prospect and reminded everyone of that at the Pangos All East Frosh/Soph Camp. The explosive forward has long arms, is an elite finisher above the rim in transition, and shows developing perimeter skills. Given the gene pool that Flory is blessed with, it’s safe to say that he is a name that you will be hearing from the next four years and beyond.
Michael Postell Jr., 6’5, SG, St. Benedict’s Prep (NJ), 2029
A player I was not familiar with, it was easy to see why some feel that “MJ” Postell is the best freshman in the state of New Jersey after seeing him at Pangos All East. Owning great size for a young guard, Postell has an innate ability to finish with creativity off either leg, has super soft touch on floater, and can get his own shot off the bounce. Playing for a loaded New York Lightning squad, Postell firmly established himself as one of the better shooting guards on the East Coast for the freshman class.
Jordan Allman, 6’5, SG/SF, MS 113 Brooklyn (NY), 2030
Yet another super talented eighth grader, Jordan Allman was selected to the top-30 game but was unable to participate due to prior obligations. The lights out shooter was incredibly confident against older competition, had deep range, and hit a number of mid-range jumpers via flashes to open areas. Already possessing nice positional size and a smooth jumper, Allman is definitely a name to track for the class of 2030.
Brazir Nelson, 6’2, PG/SG, St. Raymond’s HS (NY), 2029
An AAU teammate of Michael Postell’s with the New York Lightning, Brazir Nelson showed that he could play either guard spot equally well throughout Pangos All East Frosh/Soph Camp. The scoring point guard got the rock up the floor in a hurry, finished through contact in the paint, and shot the ball well enough from 3-point range to keep defenders honest.
Kleyton Depina, 6’4, SG, Great Barrington Academy (MA), 2029
Another player who I was unfamiliar with yet walked away incredibly impressed with was Kleyton Depina. A two guard with size, Depina was an unstoppable downhill slasher who attacked the chest of defenders every time that he had the ball in his hands and also showed outstanding release on his 3-point shot. Playing up at the 16U level on the Puma Pro16 circuit with Rhode Island Elite, Depina already has experience playing against older competition which will make the high school transition seamless.
