Top 10 recruit of the class of 2025, Dwayne Aristode, talks about basketball at Michigan State

Dwayne Aristode of Brewster Academy in New Hampshire is currently one of the top ten players of the 2025 class, according to On3.

Aristode is an explosive athlete. He will attack a close out in straight lines and finish in the scrum over the basket. He needs to work on his post-impact game and improve his handling to get to spots on the floor. This includes improving his mid and pull-up game, which will only help him become more dangerous.

With his physical attributes, explosive athleticism and jump shot ability, Aristode is a solid 3-and-D wing. He is still young and new to the U.S., so he still has some things to work on. But he has good potential and Aristode has impressed in both international FIBA ​​play and the EYBL Scholastic Circuit.

During the 2024 Nike EYBL Peach Jam games last week, Aristode recently spoke with On3’s Jamie Shaw about his game and his recruitment of Michigan State.

“My IQ has increased this season,” Aristode said. “I feel like I’ve adapted to the American game, which is different from the European one. My mental strength has grown, I feel like everyone has that here.”
