There’s always a prospect who sets the grassroots season on fire—and in 2026, that player might just be Maximo Adams.

The 6-foot-7, 205-pound small forward from Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon has been one of the biggest breakout stars of the spring and summer. After a strong showing with his high school team in June and a statement summer on the EYBL circuit with Vegas Elite, college coaches have taken notice in a big way.

Adams recently picked up scholarship offers from college basketball royalty:

• Kansas

• Kentucky

• North Carolina

Ranked No. 40 nationally in the 2026 class, Adams is a relentless competitor who plays with toughness, high energy, and a motor that never stops. He’s shown his ability to defend multiple positions, knock down shots from deep, rebound in traffic, and make hustle plays that shift momentum.

What’s setting him apart right now is his versatility. Coaches see a future stretch-forward or positionless wing who can thrive in today’s modern game.

With his recruitment heating up and blue blood programs in pursuit, Maximo Adams is a name you’ll want to remember. He’s not just a breakout—he’s a riser with elite-level potential.
