Isaac is a certified flamethrower from deep with bounce to match. He’s a lethal shooter who consistently hits over four threes a game at a blistering 40+ percent, but he’s not just a perimeter threat. Isaac can fly and finish above the rim, turning heads with his athleticism and energy. He’s wired to score but brings more than just buckets. His hunger to prove himself defensively has transformed him into a far more complete player, and his mindset is relentless. After spending most of last year on JV, he used it as fuel, poured himself into the gym, and has exploded this AAU season with the KC Runnin Rebels. Now he’s torching every big stage and ready to take varsity by storm.

This past season on JV, Isaac averaged 18 points per game. Since May, he’s elevated to a different level. Through the AAU circuit, he’s averaging 19.2 points on 48% shooting, raining over four threes a game at a smokin' hot 42% clip, while also adding 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game. In Columbia, he opened up the Live Period, averaging 20.5 points through two games on 61% from the field, 56% from three, and 100% from the line. Highlights include 30 points (8 threes) against Next Play Skills Academy and a 27-point performance versus Real Phenom 16U on 59% shooting. Isaac is a sniper who’s become a rising problem for defenses across the PRO16 League and NXT Pro stage.

His biggest areas of improvements have come defensively and in the consistency of his jumper. This offseason, he's focused on tightening his ball-handling and elevating his athleticism. Isaac is focused on earning a major role on varsity this year and showing everyone just how dangerous his offensive bag has become. Dunks fire him up, but it’s his quiet determination and constant grind that set him apart. When facing adversity, he gets back in the lab. For Isaac, it’s all about the next rep and the next shot.

He plays the game with edge, emotion, and a chip on his shoulder. His coaches push him with the truth. "You have to lose before you can win." And he’s taken that message to heart. Now, Isaac is winning on every court he steps on and making believers out of everyone who sees him play.

I assess that Isaac’s combination of lights-out shooting, explosive athleticism, and nonstop motor makes him a serious weapon. He’s a floor spacer, a transition finisher, and a developing playmaker, perfect for programs looking to add a high-efficiency scorer with upside.

Isaac is in full breakout mode. With continued development in his handles and defensive instincts, he’ll be a major impact player this upcoming high school season and a name for college coaches radar for 2026. The spark has been lit, and he’s just getting started. Stay tuned for a monster season ahead.
