The final session of the National Preparatory Association before Nationals delivered statement performances across the board. Harry Shellhammer sets NPA record with 11 3s made in a 41 point masterclass. Edge School completed a clean sweep of the session, while St. Jude’s Academy continued to build momentum behind elite guard play and defensive intensity.

2026 6’4 SG Harry Shellhammer – Tri-City Prep
24.6 PPG | 5.8 RPG | 51% 3PT

Shellhammer delivered one of the most memorable performances in NPA history, exploding for 41 points and setting a league record with 11 made threes in a single game. His ability to score off movement, pull up off the bounce, and stretch defenses well beyond the arc makes Edge nearly impossible to load up against. The efficiency (51% from three on the session) shows this wasn’t volume — it was precision. Continues to cement his case as Canada’s premier sharpshooter.

2027 6’9 F Stefan Ilic – Tri-City Prep
20.8 PPG | 13.4 RPG | 1.4 BPG

Fresh off NBA’s Basketball Without Borders, Ilic looks physically sharper and more assertive. He controlled the glass all week and scored efficiently inside, finishing through contact and establishing deeper seals. His motor has noticeably improved, and defensively he’s anchoring possessions with better timing as a rim protector. Underrated passer at his size as well.

2026 6’9 F Patrick Anamali – Edge School
18.5 PPG | 4.1 RPG | 1.1 BPG | 69% FG

Anamali continues to be one of the most efficient forwards in the league. Shooting 69% from the field, he thrives as a finisher — whether cutting, running the floor, or cleaning up around the rim. He doesn’t force touches but consistently punishes mismatches and converts at an elite rate. One of the top unsigned prospects.

2026 6’7 PG Yousaf Ahmad – King Heights Academy
18.6 PPG | 13.3 RPG | 4 APG

Ahmad’s positional versatility remains rare. At 6’7, he rebounds like a big (13.3 per game) while initiating offense and creating advantages downhill. His size allows him to see over defenses, and he continues to impact winning beyond just scoring.

2026 6’3 PG Kemar Grant – St. Jude’s Academy
17.5 PPG | 6 APG | 5 SPG | 4 RPG

Grant dictated tempo on both ends. Averaging 5 steals per game, he consistently turned defense into instant offense. His playmaking and defensive anticipation are major reasons St. Jude’s keeps stacking wins.

2026 6’0 PG Caleb Roberts – Ridley College
16.6 PPG | 6.6 RPG | 3 APG

Roberts quietly put together one of the more complete guard performances of the session. At 16.6 points per game, he provided steady scoring without forcing volume, while his 6.6 rebounds show strong activity and positional toughness on the glass. The 3 assists per game reflect solid decision-making and an ability to play on or off the ball. He impacts the game in multiple phases and consistently makes the right reads — the type of guard that raises a team’s floor heading into Nationals.

2027 6’1 G Zach Hawley – Edge School
19.4 PPG | 5.5 RPG | 2.4 SPG | 46% 3PT

Hawley provided spacing and two-way consistency. Shooting 46% from deep, he punished help rotations while remaining disruptive defensively. He’s been one of the more reliable perimeter threats in the session.

2028 6’8 F Isaiah Clarke – Crestwood
19.5 PPG | 6.5 RPG | 1.5 SPG | 53% FG

Clarke’s strength and downhill aggression stood out. He attacked gaps, finished through contact, and converted efficiently (53% from the field). His physicality adds another layer to Crestwood’s perimeter attack.

2028 6’7 W Isaiah Hamilton – Crestwood
25.5 PPG | 7 RPG | 3 SPG | 56% FG

Hamilton was one of the session’s most explosive scorers, combining efficiency (56% FG) with defensive activity. His ability to score in bunches makes him a constant momentum swing. As always, had a handful of highlight-worthy plays. Exploded in the second half vs Edge nearly leading a 19 point comeback by putting up 24 in the second half.

2026 6’0 G CJ Nelson – St. Jude’s Academy
25.5 PPG | 4 RPG | 3.5 APG

NPA leading scorer on the season. He continued to show elite shot making and composure late in games, balancing scoring with playmaking.

2026 6’5 G Teziah Malcolm – Brampton City Prep
15.5 PPG | 14 RPG | 3.5 APG | 2 SPG

Malcolm dominated the glass, averaging 14 rebounds per game. Combined with his elite slashing ability and defensive activity (2 steals per game) highlight a well-rounded impact.

2026 6’3 G Daunte Jones – Hodan Prep
12 PPG | 3 APG | 2 SPG

Jones impacted games with defensive pressure and timely scoring. He plays within himself and consistently makes winning plays. Hodan’s most consistent player on the season.

2026 6’4 G Izaiah Alleyne – Brampton City Prep
15 PPG | 3 SPG

Alleyne’s defensive activity stood out. Three steals per game paired with efficient scoring made him one of the more disruptive guards in the session.

2026 6’5 G Chris Kouame – Tri-City Prep
10 PPG | 2.6 RPG | 2.6 APG

Kouame was a steady force for TCP. Best defender and was getting downhill constantly, especially against a tough Crestwood team. He facilitated offense effectively and contributed across categories without forcing the issue.

2026 6’5 SG Quinten Ethier – Ridley College
15.6 PPG | 5.6 RPG | 1.6 SPG

Ethier’s two-way play continues to trend upward. He scored efficiently while rebounding well for his position and providing perimeter defense. Top 3&D player.

2027 6’2 G CJ Roberts – Ridley College
11 PPG | 4.6 RPG | 1.6 SPG

Roberts’ improved guard skills were on display this session. Combined with his freakish athleticism and high motor, he will be a name to monitor in 2027.

2027 6’5 G Aleks Goljovic – Polaris Prep
10 PPG | 1.5 SPG

Goljovic has been the leader for Polaris Prep on the offensive end. Leading the charge with his scoring and playmaking. High IQ guard with good positional size, and perimeter shooting.

2029 6’1 PG Praise Badejo – King Heights Academy
17 PPG | 6.5 RPG | 2.5 APG

Badejo has been standing out as an underclassman and one of the youngest players in the league. Blends scoring and playmaking from the guard spot. His ability to attack closeouts and facilitate adds versatility to his team’s offense.

2026 6’3 G Jack Noonan – Polaris Prep
11.5 PPG | 3.5 RPG | 1.5 SPG

Noonan brought high level point of attack defence for Polaris.Can space the floor, defending his position, and contributing timely buckets. Great glue guy.
