Missouri basketball lands top-50-ranked player in Class of 2027, before getting 1st 2026 commit
The first player in Missouri basketball's Class of 2027 is on the board, coming before the Tigers logged a pledge in the Class of 2026. Four-star combo guard Scottie Adkinson announced Tuesday that he has committed to Dennis Gates' team, reposting the original report from On3's Joe Tipton to his social media account. Adkinson is a highly ranked in-state pledge in the Class of 2027. Advertisement That means Mizzou now has more players committed in its 2027 class than in its current recruiting cycle. The Tigers are yet to add a player in the 2026 class. Adkinson is currently listed at 6 foot 2, 170 pounds, and plays his high school basketball at Webster Groves in St. Louis. He is playing for MOKAN 16U on the Nike EYBL circuit this summer. The combo guard helped Webster Groves to a MSHSAA Class 5 title last season. The rising high school junior is ranked as the No. 37 player in his class in the recruiting service 247Sports' composite national rankings. He is rated as the No. 3-overall combo guard and as the No. 2 player in the state of Missouri. Missouri head coach Dennis Gates works the sideline against Florida during the first half of their quarterfinal game of the SEC Men's Basketball Tournament at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn., Friday, March 14, 2025. With the early nature of the commitment — about two years before Adkinson will report to MU's campus as a freshman — the Tigers currently hold the nation's No. 1-ranked class. That is, of course, to be taken with a grain of salt because most 2027 prospects are months away from announcing a decision. Advertisement Indeed, 247Sports lists only Mizzou and Iowa State as Power-conference teams with commits in the 2027 cycle.

As it stands, Adkinson is the sixth-best recruit in Mizzou history, trailing only Michael Porter Jr., Linas Kleiza, Tony Mitchell, Annor Boateng and Jontay Porter. The Tigers are in the mix for a number of top 2026 prospects, too, including five-star power forward Toni Bryant and four-star shooting guard Aidan Chronister.
