While each year features its own star power, the groups of players participating in 2025 have as much of that as any in recent memory. The boys’ rosters feature all of the top 10 players in the On3 Industry Recruiting Rankings, headlined by No. 1 overall recruit AJ Dybantsa (BYU signee). He is joined on a loaded West squad by Kansas signee Darryn Peterson (No. 3), future North Carolina Tar Heel Caleb Wilson (No. 6), Houston signee Chris Cenac (No. 5), Arizona commit Koa Peat (No. 7) and Louisville signee Mikel Brown (No. 9), among others.

On the East side, they’ll be led by No. 2 overall prospect and Duke signee Cam Boozer, unsigned forward Nate Ament (No. 4 overall), Arkansas signee Darius Acuff (No. 10), fellow Blue Devil Cayden Boozer (No. 24), and Houston signee Isiah Harwell (No. 12).

All told, the game will feature all 14 of the prospects currently ranked as five-star recruits by the four major recruiting services: On3, 247Sports, ESPN and Rivals.
