Moving division by division, I'll break down the key players, notable stats to track and potential question marks to keep tabs on for every E16 team headed to 2023's Peach Jam.
![]()
Pool A
Nightrydas Elite
Dominance from the jump. Defending Champs, with a deep, deep roster. The undoubted favorites, but they're going to get the best of every opposing team. Will they get tripped up, or continue rolling?

Pool B
Team Takeover
Different group, same TTO recipe. A flurry of guards along with tough, hard-nosed athletes up and down the lineup. They're going to defend and do all the little things, but can they score it with some of E16's other elites?

A versatile collection of guards to go with athleticism on the wing, they're looking to get out and run. They've spiraled some down the stretch, but can they regain their form in Augusta?

- Opened 4-0
- Point differential of -2.9
- 25.8 rebounds per game (33rd overall)

Oakland Soldiers
A group that can turn up the tempo and put up massive scoring outings when things get going, but they've struggled when the game slows down. It's been hard to predict which version of the Soldiers we'll get, but they're a threat on the right night.

Why Not
High flying group that loves to get out and run, but the level of shot-making has been a question mark at times. Can they space the floor well enough outside a few sources, or will they trip?

JL3
Number of teams with the weapons, but JL3 has scent of a team ready to string together wins in Augusta. Versatile wing athletes and guards hitting their strides at the right time, this is an under-discussed group to circle heading.

- 80 points per game (2nd most)
- 33.5 rebounds per game (most) & 17.1 assists per game (2nd most)

Pool D
Florida Rebels
One of the premier on-paper teams, and they've lived up to the billing down the second half of the regular season. The pieces fit together, but could the reliance on isolation rear it's head?

- 7-0 to finish
- 3rd best in PPG (75.3) and APG (17)

MoKan Elite
Not just size across the front line, but positional size up and down the lineup. They play an impressive level of team basketball and both ends, but they don't quite a reliable source of offense. Can their cohesion lift them in Augusta?
