Players to Watch

Jaxon Richardson and the Florida Rebels look to make waves at 2025 Peach Jam.

Tyran Stokes

Tyran Stokes (No. 1, Class of 2026) looks to lead Oakland Soldiers’ revenge tour this summer as he continues to show his growth in the AAU circuit.

In last year’s Peach Jam, Nightrydas Elite (Fla.) defeated Oakland Soldiers (Calif.) 71-62, marking a three-peat for the Florida-based team. Stokes teamed up with A.J. Dybantsa, (No. 1, Class of 2025) and now looks to lead the Soldiers with Jason Crowe Jr. (No. 3, Class of 2026).

Stokes has led the 2026 recruiting class for the majority of the year; the 6-foot-7 forward averaged a double-double in last year’s Peach Jam Classic with 21.8 points and 10.0 rebounds. Stokes also has international experience under his belt as he was part of Team USA’s U19 squad.

Jaxon Richardson

The Richardson family is having a busy summer: Jase Richardson was drafted by the Orlando Magic, and now younger brother Jaxon Richardson (No. 10, Class of 2026) aims to lead the Florida Rebels in this year’s Peach Jam.

Jaxon, the son of NBA veteran Jason Richardson, has yet to commit; he boasts notable offers from Alabama, Miami and USC.

Athleticism seems to run in the family. Measuring 6-foot-5 with a quick first step, Jaxon is able to blow by defenders for highlight dunks while remaining a defensive menace.

Tajh Ariza

Tajh Ariza (No. 20, Class of 2026), the son of NBA veteran Trevor Ariza, will be one of the main players to watch for on Team WhyNot. Ariza is a 6-foot-9 forward and a USC commit.

Ariza stands tall, able to use his towering frame to get defensive stops and open up transition opportunities. Ariza is joined by talented wings Christian Collins (No. 2, Class of 2026) and Maximo Adams (No. 44, Class of 2026) as Team WhyNot looks to make a run.
