This year on the Nike EYBL Circuit, Brakefield averaged 15.9 points and 6.1 rebounds in 17 games played.

According to 247Sports, Brakefield is ranked No. 38 nationally and is the No. 6 power forward.

“He’s a do-it-all type that fills the stat sheet,” Huntington Prep coach Arkell Bruce said. “A workhorse and a tough competitor.”
