The 6-foot-6, 200-pound wing is currently viewed as a four-star prospect by 247Sports. He ranks as the No. 40 overall player in the Class of 2026, and is regarded as the No. 6 player from the state of California.
Adams, the younger brother of Marcus Adams Jr. (currently at Arizona State), has seen his phone blow up lately, as he's received offers from these schools over the last month (most of which have come since July 19):
