Akai Fleming
#114"Class of 2025 Atlanta Celtics🍀"
Georgia Tech
Scout Report
The 6-4 guard who turned heads at Overtime Elite is now bringing his unique blend of size and skill to the ACC stage.
Background
Fleming hails from Atlanta, Georgia, where he developed his game before making the jump to Overtime Elite for his final prep season. At OTE, he competed alongside elite prospects like Arkansas-bound Meleek Thomas (#11 nationally), Tennessee commit Amari Evans (#65), and Mississippi State-bound Tee Bartlett (#68). This high-level competition prepared him well for the transition to major college basketball.
Playing Style
Fleming possesses an intriguing combination of size and perimeter skills that makes him a versatile offensive weapon. At 6-4, he has the length to play either guard position while maintaining the athleticism to create separation off the dribble. His shooting stroke shows promise from beyond the arc, and he's comfortable operating in transition or half-court sets. The challenge for Fleming will be adjusting to the physicality and speed of ACC competition, particularly on the defensive end where his lateral quickness will be tested nightly.
Recruitment
Fleming arrived at Georgia Tech as the #114 prospect in the 2025 class, representing solid value for the Yellow Jackets' recruiting efforts. His development at the collegiate level will determine whether he can evolve into a consistent contributor in one of college basketball's premier conferences. The foundation is there for growth, particularly if he can add strength and refine his decision-making.
