The class of 2027 is the most loaded class in Illinois top to bottom. With players such as Devin Cleveland, Davion Thompson, and Jaxson Davis, it’s easy to overlook the other talent throughout the class. I must say if none of the Top 5 players in the 2027 class transfer out of State, it will be the most highly touted class Illinois has had since 2014 with Jahlil Okafor, and Cliff Alexander.
Mason Martin is a part of the 2027-class and he is prone to have a breakout spring and summer with Breakaway 3SSB. We did not spot Martin during the Meanstreets EYBL vs Breakaway 3SSB exhibition game however he intends on playing with the 16-under group.
Martin stands at 6 foot 4 and is very long. Mason must adds more weight and strength to his frame if he wants to make a difference on the next level but he does have two more years left of high school. Martin also must improve on his handle and being consistent throughout the game with scoring the ball. Mason tends to heat up and go missing in action quite frequently during the course of the game. Staying assertive is a must for Martin because he’s such a great shooter he could become him biggest enemy and cool himself down by not staying ready the entire game.
Be sure to watch the footage of Martin in this article below and on Top Floor Lobby’s YouTube Channel. Martin scored 18 points against 2024 State Champs Phillips Academy and 21 points against Metea Valley this season in two of three games we watched.
