Collin College Forward Elijah Herron is coming off a productive showing at the Southwest Shootout Oklahoma and Mullen & GASO JUCO Jamborees, heading into his sophomore year. Elijah averaged 7.7 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 1.5 APG, 0.2 BPG, 1.0 SPG and 56.5 FG%. The 6’7 Forward brings energy, athleticism, interior scoring ability and defensive versatility. Capable of finishing through contact and effectively using the spin move to create scoring opportunities. He consistently attacks the offensive glass, recording 8 offensive rebounds against Lamar. Defensively, Herron is an effective perimeter defender who can switch across all five positions. @elijah33herron @JUCOadvocate

Incoming Collin College Freshman Umar Ahmed has been one of the most impressive 2-Way players at the Southwest Shootout Oklahoma and Mullen & GASO JUCO Jamborees. Umar averaged 18.0 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 1.0 APG, 0.2 BPG, 0.8 SPG and 62.5 3P% (4.0 attempts per game). The 6’5 Guard brings size, scoring ability and versatile defensive presence. Capable of knocking down shots both off the catch and off the dribble while also attacking the rim, Ahmed consistently impacts the game with his all-around skill set and ability to defend multiple positions. Umar could be one of the better value pickups for any D2/mid major D1 program heading into the 2027–28 season. @Jeff_Barr5 @JUCOadvocate

Incoming Collin College Freshman Vall Camaj is one of the intriguing Forwards to watch at the JUCO level. Vall averaged 7.0 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 0.5 APG, 0.5 BPG and 36.4 3P% (5.5 attempts). The 6’8 Forward had a standout performance against La Lumiere last season with 21 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 steals while shooting 53%. Camaj is a relentless rebounder, good perimeter defender and capable three level scorer who can stretch the floor from the PF position. @vallcamaj @Jeff_Barr5
