The Nike EYBL regular season wrapped up Sunday in Las Vegas, and several Missouri Class of 2027 targets are heading into Peach Jam with momentum.
For Mizzou commit Adkinson, the final session was another productive one with MOKAN Elite. The Webster Groves product opened with 23 points on 8-15 shooting in a one-point, 61-60 loss to Team Melo on Tuesday, then helped MOKAN respond with a 70-55 win over Team Takeover the next day.
In that bounce-back victory, he finished with 15 points, six rebounds, seven assists and a steal. Across the regular season, Adkinson averaged 14.6 points while shooting 49.1% from the field, along with 3.5 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 0.6 steals per game.
MOKAN teammate Barnes also turned in one of his best outings of the year on Thursday. The Lee’s Summit native posted 13 points, eight rebounds, two steals and a season-high seven assists in a 93-79 win over Team Durant.
He closed the regular season averaging 9.2 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.9 steals. Adkinson and Barnes helped MOKAN pick up another win before sitting out the final game, and the group finished 11-4 overall, tied for second in Pool B.

He posted 11 points, seven rebounds, six assists and three steals in the win over Vegas Elite, then followed that with a season-high 16 points in a 90-77 loss to Utah Prospects, knocking down all three of his 3-point attempts. For the regular season, Mitchell averaged 7.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals.

Louis native finished with a 10-point, five-rebound effort in a 72-66 loss to Team United on Tuesday. He ended the regular season averaging 7.9 points and 4.3 rebounds.
Brad Beal Elite closed the regular season 8-7 and earned a Peach Jam berth, where it will share a pool with MOKAN during group play.
