Year Four. A New Class. Six Players. United By The Game.
The next generation isn't waiting for its moment. It's already taking center stage.
Take One Sportswear proudly introduces ROAM IV, the fourth installment of its athlete-driven basketball storytelling series, bringing together six rising prospects helping shape the future of the game.
This year's roster features Qandace Samuels, Jamaal McKnight Jr., Corey Dixon, Ashton Graves, Nyair McCoy, and Jaylah King—a collection of nationally recognized athletes whose talent, competitive drive, and individual journeys reflect everything ROAM was created to celebrate.
From a top-10 ESPN prospect and nationally ranked recruits to an SEC commit, ROAM IV brings together different personalities, playing styles, and experiences connected by a shared commitment to basketball.
But the series has never been about rankings alone.
It's about the work behind the recognition, the individuality behind the uniform, and the stories that deserve to be told long before an athlete reaches the collegiate or professional stage.
Meet the ROAM IV Athletes
Qandace Samuels | Class of 2027
Bishop McNamara High School | Five-Star Prospect
Few players in the Class of 2027 bring the combination of size, versatility, and production that Qandace Samuels brings to the floor.
The 6-foot-2 Bishop McNamara standout has established herself among the nation's premier prospects. Recognized as a five-star recruit, Samuels has built her reputation through an ability to impact nearly every aspect of the game.
During the 2025–26 season, she averaged 21 points, eight rebounds, and 3.7 steals per game, demonstrating an impressive combination of offensive production and defensive presence.
Her ability to create offense, attack mismatches, finish through contact, and influence the game defensively makes her one of the most intriguing prospects in the country.
With a recruitment drawing attention from some of college basketball's premier programs, Samuels enters the next chapter of her high school career carrying national expectations.
For ROAM, Qandace represents more than elite talent. She represents the confidence, competitiveness, and individuality of an athlete building her own legacy.
Jamaal McKnight Jr. | Class of 2027
Iowa United Prep | Nationally Ranked Point Guard
Jamaal McKnight Jr. has spent years establishing himself as one of the most exciting guards in his class.
A nationally ranked Class of 2027 point guard, McKnight has earned attention through his creativity with the basketball, quickness, competitive edge, and natural feel for the game.
His development has taken him from the competitive DMV basketball environment to Iowa United Prep, while his experience on the Nike EYBL circuit with Team Durant has provided opportunities to compete against some of the country's top talent.
A dynamic floor general, McKnight brings energy capable of changing the pace of a game. His ability to handle pressure, create opportunities, and navigate tight spaces makes him a difficult matchup.
Already familiar to the ROAM platform, McKnight returns as an example of what the series was created to document: the continued growth of young athletes as their journeys evolve.
The talent has been evident. The next chapter is about how far he can take it.
Corey Dixon | Class of 2027
Bishop O'Connell High School | Nationally Ranked Guard
Corey Dixon is making a name for himself in one of the country's most demanding high school basketball conferences.
A nationally ranked Class of 2027 guard at Bishop O'Connell, Dixon has emerged as a contributor in the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference, a league with a long history of producing high-level collegiate and professional talent.
The son of former University of Maryland national champion and NBA guard Juan Dixon, Corey carries a recognizable basketball name—but his development on the court is establishing an identity of his own.
Known for his scoring instincts, ball-handling ability, and growing confidence as a playmaker, Dixon has continued to make strides against elite competition.
Playing alongside highly regarded guard Darius Bivins, he has helped form a talented backcourt combination.
For Dixon, the opportunity is about more than carrying a basketball legacy.
It's about creating one.
Ashton Graves | Class of 2027
St. James Academy (VA) | Rising National Guard Prospect
For Ashton Graves, growth has meant embracing new environments, new challenges, and new opportunities to prove himself.
The 6-foot-3 Class of 2027 guard has continued building his reputation as an intriguing backcourt prospect, combining scoring ability, creativity, and confidence with the basketball.
After transferring from the DMV to Hudson Catholic in New Jersey, Graves made an immediate impact, reportedly averaging 20.5 points per game while embracing a significant offensive role.
Now continuing his basketball journey at St. James Academy in Virginia, Graves enters another chapter of his development with growing expectations and an opportunity to further establish himself on the national stage.
A skilled three-level scorer with the ability to create his own shot, attack defenders, and facilitate for teammates, Graves has drawn recruiting interest from Division I programs, including reported offers from Ole Miss, NC State, and Manhattan.
His experience competing on the Adidas 3SSB circuit with New World has also helped sharpen his game against high-level competition.
For ROAM IV, Graves represents an athlete willing to bet on himself, embrace change, and continue evolving.
The journey isn't defined by where you start. It's defined by how far you're willing to go.
Nyair McCoy | Class of 2027
Bishop McNamara High School | Ole Miss Commit
Don't let the size fool you.
Nyair McCoy brings the kind of pace, confidence, and competitiveness that can change the complexion of a basketball game.
The 5-foot-4 point guard from Bishop McNamara has established herself as an exciting floor general in the Class of 2027.
Known for her quickness, ability to push the tempo, and willingness to attack defenders, McCoy makes her presence felt through relentless energy and playmaking.
In June 2026, she announced her commitment to the University of Mississippi, taking an important step toward her future in the Southeastern Conference.
Her ability to create offense for herself and her teammates, operate in transition, and compete with toughness has helped her become a highly regarded prospect.
For ROAM IV, McCoy represents a simple truth about the game: impact isn't measured by height.
It's measured by how you compete.
Jaylah King | Class of 2028
Bishop McNamara High School | ESPN No. 10 Nationally | Sophomore All-American
Jaylah King isn't simply one of the brightest young prospects in the country. She's already establishing herself among the nation's elite.
Ranked No. 10 nationally in the Class of 2028 by ESPN, King has emerged as one of the premier young guards in high school basketball, combining skill, confidence, and a competitive edge well beyond her years.
The Bishop McNamara standout earned MaxPreps Sophomore All-America honors following an impressive 2025–26 campaign, contributing to a program that finished with a 29–3 record.
Competing alongside nationally recognized prospects Qandace Samuels and Nyair McCoy, King has developed her game in one of the country's most competitive high school basketball environments.
Her ability to make an impact against elite competition, combined with her continued development as a scorer and playmaker, has positioned her among the most closely watched prospects in her class.
Still early in her high school career, King has already built a resume that many athletes spend years pursuing.
For ROAM IV, she represents the next generation of basketball excellence—a young star whose national recognition is only the beginning of her story.
The ranking speaks for itself. The ceiling is still being written.
More Than Rankings. More Than Basketball.
What began as an initiative to spotlight promising high school basketball players has evolved into a platform centered on athlete identity, creative expression, and storytelling.
Through ROAM, Take One Sportswear brings together basketball, performance apparel, photography, and original content to present young athletes beyond the traditional recruiting spotlight.
Each installment introduces new personalities while continuing the stories of athletes who have helped build the series.
ROAM IV reflects that evolution.
Some members of this year's roster are returning faces. Others represent a new generation entering the platform. Together, they reinforce the idea that every athlete's path is different, and every journey deserves to be recognized.
Whether competing for championships, navigating national recruitment, preparing for college basketball, or establishing themselves among the best in their class, these six athletes represent the ambition and individuality that continue shaping the culture of the game.
The Next Chapter of ROAM
Four installments in, ROAM continues to grow alongside the athletes who define it.
For Take One Sportswear, the series represents a commitment to building genuine relationships within basketball while creating opportunities for young talent to express themselves and share their experiences.
The objective has never been simply to capture where an athlete stands today.
It's to recognize the journey, document the growth, and celebrate the people they are becoming.
Six athletes. Six different stories. One shared connection.
ROAM IV has arrived.
United By The Game.
