Cooper Flagg, Trae Young among the top stars to leave mark on Peach Jam - ESPN

The Nike Peach Jam continues to be a highlight of summer basketball, showcasing the best young talents. Among the standouts this year was Cooper Flagg, who dominated with impressive stats, including a game with 38 points and 12 blocks, ultimately leading Maine United to the title game. Jalen Green, another Peach Jam alum, displayed his athletic prowess in 2019, averaging nearly 24 points and later becoming the second overall pick in the NBA draft. In 2024, Cameron Boozer led NightRydas Elite to consecutive championships, cementing his place as one of the top prospects.

Additionally, the event has seen stars like Trae Young and Michael Porter Jr., whose combined efforts led Mokan Elite to a perfect run in 2016. Other notable players include Jayson Tatum, whose versatility made him a highlight reel in 2015, and Julius Randle, who showcased his scoring ability at the 2012 event. The Peach Jam has undeniably been a launching pad for these elite athletes, shaping the future of basketball.
