He is ranked as the No. 73 overall prospect in the 2026 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking. He’s also the No. 7 center and the No. 15 player in Florida.
The big man was one of the standouts at the Pangos All-American camp this summer, according to On3’s Jamie Shaw:
Marcis Ponder is a physical presence. It is hard to ignore when he steps on the floor with his frame. When he plays, he shows off his explosion. He is quick off his feet, finishing consistently around the basket and through contact. Ponder has passer-friendly hands and is a good area rebounder.
