Head coach Steven Pearl attended the NBPA Top 100 Camp earlier this week and took a look at 2027 prospects Beckham Black and Lewis Uvwo. The Tigers also have their hopes of landing talented 2027 three-star small forward Frashad Tisby. He recently did an interview with Rivals' Jamie Shaw and discussed his visit to Auburn.
In the article by Shaw, Tisby was complimentary of Auburn. He talked about how he has been watching the Tigers with Steven Pearl as head coach over the past year. Tisby has taken notice of how Auburn uses Tahaad Pettiford as the main scorer.
"I would come in as the secondary playmaker. I fit their playstyle because I can handle the ball and get my teammates involved," Tisby said in his interview with Shaw.
Auburn could use a good playmaking wing player like Tisby on its future roster. For the Tigers, having a player making at the wing position would make them harder to defend. He is rated a three-star prospect by both 247Sports and Rivals.
Overall, he is the No. 125 player for the 2027 recruiting class. He plays high school basketball at Cross Creek High School in Augusta, Georgia, where he led his team to a state championship. He scored 16 points in the win.
At his height of 6-6, he has shown the ability to get to the basket and finish at the rim. His offensive skillset is not limited, though, and Tisby has range beyond the three-point line. His length and athleticism also make him a talented defender as well. Tisby is a good shot blocker around the basket and can also recover if the person he is defending were to get past him. Other than Auburn, he also has offers from Harvard, Marquette, and South Carolina, among others.
