About

Hoops Prospects was created in 2017 with the goal of providing quality and in-depth basketball content, specifically focusing on potential NBA draft prospects.  We research and analyze basketball prospects from all over the world on a year-round basis.  Our approach to player evaluation combines hours of old-school, eye-test scouting and a unique form of analytics, and we pride ourselves in providing detailed, professional, original and unbiased prospect rankings and scouting reports of the top prospects eligible for the NBA Draft. 

In February of 2022, the Hoops Prospects Podcast (HPP) was born.  Each week, various members of the Hoops Prospects’ staff discuss the latest developments in the world of hoops and analyze pro prospects for the NBA Draft.  HPP also features guest appearances from various people involved with pro and college basketball, including players, scouts, coaches, writers, and TV personalities. You can find the latest episodes on all the major podcast outlets, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music.

Additionally, Hoops Prospects has expanded into the consulting community, offering customized advice for both college and professional teams.  If you are interested in learning more about Hoops Prospects’ consulting services, please use our contact form
