Make5 Report: 2026 FEAAC Invitational Uncovers a Deep Pool of Emerging Talent

 

BRANDON, FL — Every year, the Future Elite All-American Camp Invitational (FEAAC) seems to get deeper and the 2026 Invitational was no exception.

What stood out most this year wasn’t necessarily the players already receiving national recognition. It was the number of prospects flying under the radar who have the talent, physical tools, and developing skill sets to make significant noise over the next several recruiting cycles.

There were several players who caught my attention throughout the event. Some are established ranked prospects continuing to elevate their games, while others are beginning to put themselves in position for greater exposure.

Here are some of the players who stood out during my evaluation.

 

2028 CLASS

Lynden Adia | 6’0” PG | St. Andrews School, FL | SOH Elite

Adia was one of the best on-ball defensive PG’s I evaluated this fall. His exceptional hand and foot speed make him a tenacious defender who consistently disrupts opposing guards. Offensively, he is quick with the ball and capable of scoring at all three levels, although he is most effective attacking the basket. His ability to navigate traffic and finding open teammates was impressive. Adia brings a combination of defensive intensity and offensive instincts.

Sharpe is an extremely skilled and versatile player, when fully engaged he can become one of the toughest matchups in his class. His offensive arsenal is impressive, with the ability to score in virtually every way. He has the explosiveness to blow by defenders and the physicality to finish through contact, including above the rim. When he finds his rhythm from beyond the arc, he can knock down three-pointers in bunches. He also demonstrated an effective post game, using his size and strength to punish smaller defenders while finishing comfortably with either hand. When his motor is running at full speed, Sharpe has the tools to become a dominant offensive force.

Yasir Turner | 6’3” CG | Archbishop Carroll, PA | Shoreshots

Turner continues to impress with his poise, patience and exceptional feel for the game. One of his greatest strengths is his basketball IQ and ability to control the tempo without allowing defenders to speed him up. He rarely forces the action, instead allowing the game to come to him while consistently making smart decisions. When his team needs a bucket, he has the ability to take over and score in bunches. What separates Turner is his understanding of when to attack, when to facilitate and how to make the simple play look effortless. He is a highly composed guard who consistently plays beyond his years.

Caden Gildon | 6’4” CG | Seffner Christian Academy, FL

Gildon made his presence felt immediately with aggressive, full-court defensive pressure. He consistently picked up opposing guards for 94 feet, using his intensity and physicality to disrupt offensive flow. Offensively, he maintained that same aggressive mentality, constantly attacking the basket and finishing with authority, including several dunks. While he demonstrated the ability to play both guard positions, he appeared most comfortable operating off the ball, where he could focus on attacking, creating scoring opportunities and putting points on the board.

Moussa Drabo | 6’8” C | Central Pointe Christian, FL | SOH Elite

The big fella showed plenty of promise and upside throughout camp. When fully engaged, Drabo was a physical presence in the paint, using his size and strength to impact the glass. Offensively, he attacked the rim aggressively and finished with authority, including some impressive dunks. Defensively, he challenged shots and protected the rim with his length. Consistency and maintaining a high motor will be important as he continues to develop, but when locked in, Drabo has the tools to become a dominant force in the paint.

Raiden Burke | 6’3” CG | Morgan HS, FL

Having followed Burke’s development over the years, I’ve been impressed with his steady progression. His improved pace and growing basketball IQ have made him a more polished and efficient player. A legitimate three-level scorer, Along with his range from the 3, Burke has developed an exceptional mid-range game, consistently creating separation and knocking down difficult jumpers.

Few players were as effective at creating offense in transition, as he consistently pushed the ball, found open teammates and put pressure on the defense.

His ability to play fast without losing control makes him a guard worth keeping on the radar.
