Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Zaccharie Risacher

Summary

Ament is a big, late-blooming combo-forward who was a top 5-recruit coming out of high school. He struggled to live up to lofty initial expectations at Tennessee, but made a notable jump in mid-January. Long-term, he is a high upside prospect, but one with a wider degree of possible outcomes.

About

Consensus five-star prospect who finished ranked No. 4 overall in the 2025 recruiting class.
Selected for the McDonald’s All-American Game, Jordan Brand Classic and Nike Hoop Summit.
Naismith First-Team All-American and Gatorade Player of the Year in the state of Virginia.

Strengths

Overlap of positional size and skill, along with dexterity (great left hand) and fluidity as a mover.
Soft natural hands and touch, along with a high release point, are the basis for his mismatch skill-set. Posted 47/42/90 shooting splits on the Adidas 3SSB Circuit.
Shown growth as a handler and in his ability to draw fouls this year at Tennessee.

Weaknesses

Lack of strength and sheer force in his game which can impact his physicality.
Can play upright, without ideal bend or upper body elasticity, on both ends of the floor and is somewhat in between positions defensively.
Shooting and finishing numbers haven’t been nearly as encouraging in college as they were in high school.
