Millennium High School's star 6-foot-6, 195-pound senior guard/forward Cam Holmes has been one of the most recruited prospects in the country for many years now. After a long and lengthy recruiting process, his college recruitment is now winding down, as the top-rated 2026 prospect has narrowed down his list of schools and has scheduled numerous visits for himself this fall. Holmes has a very strong list of college programs that he will look to choose from, and he does not seem to have a clear leader at this point. It will be very interesting to see where Holmes ultimately lands.
Holmes has released his final list of schools and visits. He will take (6) different official recruiting visits to Illinois (9/12), North Carolina (9/19), Oklahoma (10/3), Texas (10/31), Gonzaga (11/11) and the University of Arizona (12/5).
It will be very interesting to see if Holmes takes all (6) recruiting visits, before making his college decision. With University of Arizona being his last official visit, it is more than likely that Holmes will look to take each of his visits before a decision, and the Wildcats' coaching staff will look to land the star prospect with positioning themselves as the last visit. Whomever lands Holmes, will be getting an immediate impact performer that should be able to insert himself into the lineup instantly.
Holmes is coming off another strong spring and summer performance on the Nike EYBL circuit with his Arizona Unity club program, and will now look to lead his Millennium program to the elusive Open Division State Championship, in Holmes' final high school season. Last season, Holmes led Millennium High School to a 20-8 overall record in Arizona’s top 6A Division. Behind Holmes’ versatile and consistent play, Millennium advanced all the way to the semifinals of the Open Division State Playoffs - reaching the Final Four before falling in a narrow 58-53 loss to Sunnyslope High School.
Last season, Holmes averaged 20.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. Holmes proved he’s not just a scorer, but rather a complete player. Whether slashing to the basket, knocking down jumpers or facilitating for teammates, Holmes plays with a polish and poise. A relentless competitor and gym rat, Holmes is the emotional and vocal leader of a Millennium team that has become one of the elite programs in the country. His high motor, competitive edge, and ability to defend multiple positions have made him a cornerstone of Millennium’s culture and success.
With numerous changes for the Millennium program this high school season, and many new faces, one thing will be very consistent - the play of Cam Holmes, who returns to lead the Tigers all the way in his final season.
Arizona Preps Scouting Report: Unlike his older brother DaRon Holmes (Denver Nuggets), Cameron is a left-hander and is a 2/3 prospect that likes to create shots off the dribble from the perimeter, and also shoot the basketball with range from three-point distance. He has a very good perimeter shooting stroke with unlimited range, and also is a good ball handler that can create. He is an active rebounder and is a good passer that sees the floor, and enjoys getting the ball to the open teammate. He has a strong and developed mid-range game, his best offensive skillset. He also runs the floor hard for scoring opportunities, and is an excellent athlete in the open floor. He likes having the ball in his hands and making plays for himself and others, and continues to blossom into a nice facilitator of the basketball from the point position within the offense. Holmes has added some serious size to his once thin frame, and it is apparent now just how big and athletic of a wing prospect he has become. He is a big-time talent that has blossomed right before our eyes. Holmes is as good a prospect as there is in Arizona's 2026 Class, and I look forward to watching him to continue to soar to new heights.
