The 2025 NBA Finals made for an interesting storyline with Texas A&M basketball. Quenton Jackson for the Indiana Pacers and Alex Caruso for the Oklahoma City Thunder were both involved in this year's championship. Caruso ended up winning his second championship, becoming just one of three guys in the NBA in this decade to win multiple championships.
With the 2025 NBA Draft concluding, there are some Aggies looking to battle for a spot on an NBA roster. They have a decent shot to make a full-time roster with their respective electrifying shooting.
While we wait to see what happens with Wade Taylor IV and Zhuric Phelps, let's check on some of the other Aggies on where they are now.
Wade Taylor IV
Taylor IV was recently signed to the Milwaukee Bucks, where they already have plenty of talented shooters on display, like A.J. Green and Gary Trent Jr. Taylor will have to prove himself like any other undrafted player, but his confidence shooting the ball is something that can't be taught.
Being the all-time leading scorer in Aggie history isn't a small thing on his resume, and he'll have just as much of a shot as the next undrafted player to make an impact.
Zhuric Phelps
Phelps is in one of the best positions possible. With the Mavs getting Cooper Flagg as the No. 1 overall pick, Phelps will be joining Flagg with the Mavs to get a golden opportunity to shine.
Flagg is an all-around player, his court vision and IQ alone will be enough for Phelps to get tons of good looks in the Summer League. With the Mavs needing a facilitator to take over while Irving is gone, the Mavs will likely sign a veteran point guard to fill that void, but if they don't, Phelps will be a name to watch.
Andersson Garcia
Garcia was one of the hardest working players that Texas A&M has ever seen. His tenacious rebounding and hustle plays earned him the "Dominican Rodman" nickname. Since his Texas A&M days, he's been lighting it up overseas in the Dominican Republic.
Andersson Garcia has been a star in the Dominican Republic National Basketball League 👍

Andy returned home after his final season at A&M and is averaging 15.7 PPG, 11 RPG, 5.3 APG, 1.5 SPG, 1.3 BPG 🔥

Aggie fans aren't surprised to see this. Garcia has been tearing it up on all phases. He's going to have a phenomenal career in his home country.
Manny Obaseki
Obaseki was known to be one of the more fierce Aggies during his career. His fearless dribble drives made for some fun, exciting plays.
He declared for the 2025 NBA Draft, but has not been picked since and still waiting for his name to be called. Whether it's the NBA or overseas, he's got a spot somewhere to compete.
