Chase Lumpkin stands out at Pangos All-American Camp for Indiana

Chase Lumpkin left Pangos All-American Camp with more than buzz, and Indiana has to weigh that against a national field that included the country’s better young guards. Trevor Andershock posted that the 2027 point guard had been “outstanding at the Pangos All-American Camp through a day and a half,” and an Instagram post credited Lumpkin with 21 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists while placing him in the camp’s top 10 in assists.

That production matters because Pangos is built for evaluation against elite peers, not empty summer run scoring. Lumpkin’s line pointed to a 6-foot-4, 180-pound guard who can handle the ball, create for others and still finish possessions on the glass. For Indiana fans, that is the part worth watching: a point guard from Powder Springs, Georgia, who showed enough size and playmaking to stand out in a setting where every mistake is magnified.

Indiana offered Lumpkin in late May, and that early push looks more meaningful after a strong camp showing. ESPN lists him as a 2027 point guard with a Scout Grade of 88, ranked No. 9 at the position, No. 13 in the Southeast and No. 6 in Georgia. 247Sports identifies him as a combo guard at McEachern High School, which fits the camp numbers that showed both scoring punch and distribution. A separate recruiting update labeled him the No. 62 overall player in the national 2027 class and said he was weighing schools including Alabama, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Louisville and Tennessee.

That is the real shift for Indiana. Lumpkin is no longer just a name on the board after an offer from the Hoosiers. A strong Pangos run against top national competition can reorder a recruit’s profile quickly, especially for Midwest programs trying to identify guards before the rest of the country fully locks in. Pangos has long drawn a concentrated pool of high-end prospects, including a group of 110 top players from 22 states at Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, and that kind of environment can separate a productive scorer from a guard who can actually direct an offense.

Lumpkin’s showing did not settle his recruitment, but it made him harder to ignore. For Indiana, that kind of performance can move a 2027 guard from interesting target to priority watch.
