According to 247Sports, Beauchamp is ranked as the No. 21 overall player in the Class of 2020 and the No. 1 player from the state of Washington.
According to a release from Chameleon BX, their staff includes Bob Hill, Dave Joerger, Kim Hughes, Eddie Johnson, Josh Oppenheimer, Tom Sterner
“I’m genuinely humbled by all the interest and offers I received by some great schools,” Beauchamp said in a release. “Although they were tough to turn down, I believe the Chameleon BX program provides the kind of personalized attention I need to get my body and game properly prepared for pursuing my dream of a career in the NBA.
Said his father: “Frank Matrisciano’s proven ability to transform athletes, combined with the skills training provided by his accomplished NBA coaching staff is simply a far better option for MarJon than a one-and-done year at college, or any of the other paths we considered before making our decision.”
