6'10" Forward • Reclassified to 2026 • Texas commit
Forward/Center
Marcus Spears Jr. is one of the premier names in the 2027 high school basketball class. The 6-foot-10 forward was originally ranked No. 1 nationally in the 2027 class and built a national profile through Dynamic Prep, Nike EYBL and USA Basketball.
Spears combines size, athleticism and two-way production with an elite basketball pedigree. During the 2025-26 season at Dynamic Prep, he averaged 15.1 points, 7.6 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game. He also helped Team USA win gold at the 2025 FIBA U16 AmeriCup and was named to the All-Star Five.
Spears reclassified into the 2026 class and committed to Texas, but his Prospect Players profile remains rooted in the national prospect journey that made him one of the most valuable names in his original class.

Texas undoubtedly had one of the best offseasons of any team in the country, bringing in big names like David Punch, Isaiah Johnson, Elyjah Freeman, and Austin Goosby, but the most fun player to evaluate throughout their first three games has been 17-year-old Marcus Spears Jr. https://t.co/dXDo8lK6ZC

New @statesman: Marcus Spears Jr. will be tested sooner-or-later as a 17-year-old freshman. He’s yet to meet his match through three games at Texas, where he and a collection of freshman are off to a hot start on a deep Longhorns’ roster. https://t.co/w7xMx0Knts
