Many NBA and Division I scouts have set their eyes on the 2024 Peach Jam, where the top basketball prospects showcase their skill sets. The tournament is an opportunity for the players to make the most of their talent and get into one of the Blue Blood programs.

The Blue Blood programs are NCAA Division I programs. Programs like Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, UCLA, UConn, UNC, and Indiana fall under this category.

The 2024 Peach Palm witnessed legendary coaches and NBA players. Not just those who are currently playing but also the retired ones supporting their children at the Peach Jam. Chris Paul, Matt Barnes, Jason Richardson, Carmelo Anthony, Ja Morant, and Carlos Boozer were among the attendees.

Let's take a look at the best five performers who might end up in a great program shortly.

AJ Dybantsa was one of the best performers at the Peach Jam. Along with great forward play, he displayed a solid defensive performance.

His 7-foot-1 wingspan provides a lot of advantage to his play, getting him to be the leading scorer in the 17U division last year after averaging 23.1 ppg. Dybantsa, a long-term NBA prospect, has received offers from many major programs, with Auburn the most likely destination, according to On3.

#2. Cameron Boozer

Cameron Boozer had a great summer and is considered to be one of the best high school players. Representing Nightrydas Elite (Florida) at the Peach Jam, he led his team to a third consecutive Peach Jam championship after winning the 16U and 15U divisions as well.

A 6-foot-9 power forward, he averaged 20.4 ppg, 10.1 rpg, and 3.5 apg at the Peach Jam and has also been named the MVP of the tournament. With many offers on the table, On3 has him most likely going to the Florida Gators with a 33.3% chance.

#3. Tyran Stokes

Tyran Stokes, who stands 6-foot-8, was one of the youngest players on the U17 Team USA, which won gold earlier this month. The rising junior class's top player has defied his age (16) and developed significantly.

His creativity in passing can make him one of the most dangerous point-forward in the near future. Stokes has also become one of the favorites of Arkansas' John Calipari, who seems to be working hard for his signature.

#4. Caleb Wilson

Caleb Wilson concluded the Peach Jam with an average of 17.3 ppg, 7.1 rpg, and 2.3 apg. His best performance came in the 2024 Peach Jam semifinals. He also talked about his performance with Yahoo Sports:

"I'm just hoping to show NBA scouts that are watching different aspect of my game," said Wilson.

In the semifinal game against Team Takeover (Virginia), he scored 29 points and three blocks. Wilson has received offers from Auburn, UNC, Stanford, Georgia, and Alabama. However, On3 has predicted him to end up at Auburn with a 27.7% chance.

#5. Cayden Boozer

Cayden Boozer has displayed a lot of improvement at the 2024 Peach Jam after being questioned on his readiness by scouts last year. He has improved how he used to handle and pass the ball and led the tournament in assists after averaging 6.9 apg.

He was also impressive at the U17 FIBA World Cup, averaging 6.6 assists. He has received offers from Duke, Florida, Miami, Kentucky, and Florida State. However, On3 has him going to the Gators, just like his twin brother, with a 33.3% chance.
