Compass Prep (Ariz.) 4-star Demarcus Henry shines at NBPA top 100 camp
Demarcus Henry, the 4‑star forward from Compass Prep in Chandler, Arizona, emerged as one of the standout performers at the NBPA Top 100 camp held in Rock Hill, South Carolina. The class of 2027 prospect is currently ranked the tenth‑best player in the nation by Rivals, and his camp showing reinforced that status.
Transferring from Santa Ana’s Mater Dei (Calif.) for his junior year, Henry logged the highest scoring and rebounding averages among all participants. Over four games he posted:
- Points per game: 20.0
- Rebounds per game: 9.3
- Assists per game: 3.0
- Field‑goal percentage: 51.9%
His production helped Team Gibson finish the camp with a 3‑1 record. In the final matchup, Henry poured in 28 points, though Team Gibson fell to Team Davis, which was led by four‑star Jahari Miller (Ind.) who scored 29.
College interest in Henry remains intense. Scholarship offers are on the table from:
- Kentucky
- Ohio State
- BYU
- North Carolina
- Kansas
Rivals’ RPM service projects a commitment to either Ohio State or BYU, both of which Henry has visited unofficially.
Other notable camp participants included five‑star Beckham Black (Southeastern Prep, Fla.), who averaged 16.5 points, and four‑star Cayden Daughtry, who contributed 13.8 points per game. The MVP honor went to four‑star Ahmed Nur of Hopkins Royal (Minn.), who posted 14.8 points and 7.0 rebounds while shooting 63.9% from the field.
Henry’s dominant performance at the NBPA Top 100 camp has solidified his reputation as a premier recruit and a player to watch as the 2027 class approaches the college signing period.
