| Joe Rondone/The Republic / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Amidst the recent portal news hitting the Missouri basketball team, two future Tigers hit center stage at the 2026 McDonald’s All American Boys Game. Suiting up for the East was Toni Bryant, while future teammate Jason Crowe Jr. donned the West jersey.

In Team West’s 102-86 win, Crowe propelled his team to victory while also nabbing co-MVP alongside Arizona recruit Caleb Holt. It was a fast-paced bout right out the gate with Bryant knocking down the first points of the game from beyond the arc. Standing at 6-foot-10 the big man made his presence known with two three-pointers and a total of 14 points.

By the end of the game, Bryant also had five rebounds and two blocks after around 23 minutes of action. Per a previous RockM recruiting post, Bryant has been described as, “an elite athlete with top-tier physical tools and defensive versatility, but his game remains unrefined. Limited appearances and inconsistent production raise questions about his short-term impact, especially in half-court offense.
