Under Armour Next Elite 24 Returns To New York - Here’s Who We're Excited To See Put On A Show In The Big Apple
NYC Welcomes World's Top Talent to Elite 24
For the first time since 2016 Under Armour Elite 24 is returning to its roots in Brooklyn. Forty eight of the best high boys and girls from around the world will compete in one the most elite showcases of the summer. For the first time ever international talent will be part of the rosters showcasing the rise of players born outside of the U.S. ready to make their mark on the world.
There is a stacked roster for this year's showcase. Here are the Greenlight team’s picks on who you should be looking out for.
Bryson Tiller - Power Forward
Bryson Tiller, a versatile 6'10" forward in the class of 2025, stands out with his 7'2" wingspan. He excels in both face-up and post-up play, showcasing fluid athleticism and scoring ability with either hand. Tiller's performances in Overtime Elite and NBPA Top 100 have highlighted his scoring and rebounding skills. Defensively, he's effective both on the perimeter and in the post. He can effectively guard 1-5, and that is not an exaggeration. As one of the most polished frontcourt prospects in his class, Tiller combines size with modern four-man skills, though he's still developing his ball-handling and consistency as a perimeter shooter. His multi-faceted game makes him a must watch at UA 24. The next steps in Tiller’s development will be consistency in his production and asserting himself as a leader.
Nate Ament - Small Forward
Ament, standing at 6 '10", broke onto the national scene representing Team Loaded in North Carolina and has been one of the top stock risers in the 2025. Experts now believe he has the best chance out of any prospect to dethrone AJ Dybantsa’s top spot. While that may be out-of-reach, there is no denying his special combination of size and fluidity. Ament possesses a smooth jump shot, and can to his spots in the midrange. He exhibits guard-like skills in a forward's body, moving comfortably in space and breaking down defenses off the dribble. Although he is considered on the leaner side, both his height and potential for physical growth suggest a high ceiling. A high-upside prospect with modern skill sets, Ament has the potential to be a very high-level pro.
Eli Ellis - Shooting Guard
Eli may not be the tallest player on the court, but he's got a serious game when it comes to scoring. His production and efficiency on the court far outweigh his recruiting rankings, and Ellis embraces this with a chip on his shoulder. He's a threat from deep, able to knock down shots from way outside. Eli's great at creating his own shots off the dribble too. He's got a smooth mid-range game, always finding good spots to pull up and shoot. His floater game is on point, giving him options when driving to the hoop. Eli plays with a ton of confidence, never backing down from a challenge. While he could still get better at shot selection and setting up his teammates, there's no doubt Eli is a born scorer.
Acaden Lewis - Combo Guard
Acaden is a standout 6’3” point guard who's making waves in high school basketball. Acaden might still be ranked as a 4-Star, but he has offers from just about every blue-blood. He has taken recent visits to UConn, Duke, and many other high-major programs. He's got a well-rounded game, putting up impressive numbers across the board - scoring, rebounding, assisting, and stealing. He averaged 6.1 assists on the EYBL Circuit with Team Durant, and will be one of the most highly-anticipated prospects at Elite 24.
Ikenna Alozie- Lead Guard
Ikenna Alozie is a strong and powerful lead guard with high-level athleticism. After seeing Alozie in-person at the Chick Fil A Classic last season, it was clear why he was a 5-star prospect in the class. If he continues to fine-tune in his perimeter shooting he’ll be trending towards a 1st round selection. He is a proven winner, and is coming off a 2nd straight 3SSB Title with Utah Prospects. It is scary to think that Alozie is just now entering his junior year of high school. We’re excited to see how his game matches up with some of the top-ranked players in the country.
Roster attached below.
Killed this bro 🔥 going to be keeping a close eye on the OTE guys—they’re monsters this year
Really excited to see how Acaden performs. Hopefully he gets his well deserved recognition for his fifth star.
