Continuing onward with the regional Pangos Frosh/Soph Camps, we took in the 2025 edition of the All South version last weekend. Held in Dallas at the gorgeous Duncanville Fieldhouse, the All- South Camp blended elite positional size, big time athleticism, and some super talented players from 13 different states throughout the South.The two day event gave each player three games to showcase their talent in front of the 30 plus media members/scouts who were in the building, culminating with the Cream of The Crop Top 60 Game and Cream of The Crop Top 30 game reserved for the most productive campers.
The Pangos All South Frosh/Soph Camp has boasted a who’s who as far as NBA alumni, including the likes of De’Aaron Fox, Trae Young, Cade Cunningham, Tyrese Maxey, Derrick Favors, Terrance Ferguson, Keyontae George, Cason Wallace, and countless others. Event founder Dinos Trigonis did an outstanding job of assembling a group of talent that will be undoubtedly adding to that list as well, including a couple of eighth graders who are already sitting atop of the rankings.
Having already taken a deep dive with the 2028 standouts, we’re going to take a closer look at the top 2029 and 2030 prospects from the 2025 Pangos All South Frosh/Soph Camp:
Alex Alexander, 6’10, PF, Mesquite HS (Texas), 2029
Upon first sight, you would think that Alex Alexander is waiting to play his first game of college, not his first game of high school. The powerful lefty has a physical profile similar to that of Timberwolves all-star Julius Randle at the same stage and has the game to match. The Co-MVP of the camp was unstoppable going downhill driving left, bullied smaller defenders on the block, and showed the inside/outside game that you look for in today’s bigs. Considered by some to be the top player in the class of 2029 nationally, Alexander has already shown that he can dominate playing up against older competition with Max Levels Elite on the New Balance P32 League.
Mike Sorrell, 6’5, SG, Episcopal School of Dallas (Texas), 2029
Perhaps the best shooter the event had to offer, Mike Sorrell was the prototypical shooting guard who produces no matter what situation he’s in. The lights out shooter was able to get to his three point shots both off the bounce and moving without the ball, showing a quick release and extreme confidence when he let it fly. Our own Ani Umana highlighted Sorrell at the Hoop DFW 60 Camp and he continued his upward trajectory by proving himself as the best shooter at Pangos All South.
DJ Parker, 6’6, SF, Kennemer Middle School (Texas), 2030
Similar to Alex Alexander, it’s truly hard to fathom that DJ Parker is just entering eighth grade. He is already a game changing athlete on both ends of the floor, blending explosive leaping ability with outstanding quickness for a young swingman. Parker proved that he could hold his own against the older competition as an elite finisher in transition, explosive straight line driver, and was enough of a threat as a shooter to keep defenders honest. Still super early in the process, DJ has all of the tools to be the next big name in line out of Texas powerhouse Duncanville.
Heir Jackson, 6’2, PG, Mansfield Home School (Texas), 2030
Yet another super talented eighth grader the camp had to offer was Heir Jackson, a super athletic combo guard. The Mansfield product was an elite defender on the perimeter, will dunk on you on the break, and is a steady 3-point shooter. Having already played varsity as a seventh grader, Jackson already holds an N.C. State offer and has firmly established himself as one of the better 2030 lead guards in the nation at this point.
Felix Okam, 6’9, PF, Grand Prairie HS (Texas), 2029
A player who I admittedly had never heard of going into the camp, I walked away with Felix Okam’s name etched in my mind. The long armed big was elite running the floor, played with a motor that didn’t stop on both ends of the court, and showed raw talent facing the basket attacking with either hand. Okam has been making his name well known in Texas and will be doing it sooner rather than later nationally.
Vijay Keshaav, 6’2, PG/SG, Frisco Memorial (Texas), 2029
A young point guard with size, Vijay Keshaav has been playing a high level for quite some time now and continued that trend at Pangos All South. The freshman has an array of creative finishes at the rack, will finish on the break with some dunks in style, and is a knockdown 3-point shooter. Keshaav already holds an offer from Mississippi State and has supplanted himself amongst the elite in Texas’ 2029 class early on.
