Watch "King James" when he was still a young "prince". In 2000, LeBron still played high school basketball at St. Vincent – St. Mary High School (in his hometown: Akron, Ohio). His amazing basketball talent was undoubtedly already visible and earned him a three-time "Mr. Basketball of Ohio".
LeBron already scored an average of 21 points and 6 rebounds per game and developed to 25.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 3.8 steals per game in his sophomore year.
For a couple of his team's games, the "Fighting Irish" had to actually use the local university's (University of Akron, Ohio) arena to keep up with the ticket demand as everybody wanted to see LeBron showcase his amazing talent.

Dennis Schroeder with great game at Nike Hoop Summit 2013: 18 points and 6 assists contributed to win over US
Dennis Schröder was definitely one of the stars of the 2013 Nike Hoop Summit.
Germany's top basketball talent scored 18 points and made 6 assists. He drew a lot of attention and increased his chances for a first round pick at the NBA drafts. draftexpress.com currently lists him as top20 1st round pick for the 2013 drafts. Some experts compared Dennis' speed, agility and overall game to Rajan Rondo. That's definitely a better comparison than Dirk Nowitzki, who dominated the 19998 Nike Hoop Summit 15 years ago (video here. Nike Hoop Summit 1998 feat. Dirk Nowitzki).
My favorite 2013 Nike Hoop Summit players:
Here is Dennis Schröder's scouting video from 2012. I think he has made great progress since then.

My favorite 2013 Nike Hoop Summit players:
- Livio Jean-Charles (France) was the top scorer with 27 points and amazing 13 rebounds and 2 blocks on top
- Jabari Parker (USA) with 22 points - however, disappointing performance from the 3-point-line: He only made 1 out of 9 (!) attempts. Positive: 7 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks
- Dennis Schröder (Germany) scored 18 and added 6 assists - great game!
- Andrew Wiggins (Canada) scored 17 points and caught 9 rebounds

Nike Hoop Summit 1998: Young Dirk Nowitzki MVP with 33pts & 14rebs
Dirk Nowitzki rocking the 1998 Nike Hoop Summit. Dirk scored 33 points (may of the free throw line!) and caught 14 rebounds. Amazing basketball talent and amazing performance.
Nowitzki was part of the International Select Team that beat the US Basketball Junior National Select Team in San Antonio, Texas, on March 29th 1998.
Who would have thought that the German teen would later be one of the most effective NBA players? Partially due to Dirk's almost unstoppable fade-away jumper, he is not only part of the very elite 50-40-90 club (50+ FG% - 40+ 3FG% - 90+ FT%), Dirk Nowitzki has also made it to both regular season MVP (in 2007) and finals MVP in 2011 when he won the NBA championship with the Dallas Mavericks in game 6.

Young Dirk Nowitzki playing for his school team - Very rare footage
Watch "The Dirkster" when he was still a teen with basketball talent playing with his high school basketball team (resp. the German equivalent). Not sure when the video was shot and how old Dirk was exactly, but I assume Nowitzki was roughly 15 or 16 years old at that time.
... and now watch Dirk Nowitzki several years later at the eventual peak of his basketball career:
Here is an analyses of Nowitzki's unstoppable fade-away jumper:

And here are the highlights of the last game (game 6) of the 2011 NBA finals in which Dirk and the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Miami Heat:

Nike Hoops Summit 1993: Allen Iverson & Kevin Garnett as high school talents
Great video showcasing Allen Iverson's and Kevin Garnett's basketball talent in the very early days of their career when both were still playing high school basketball. The played in opposing teams at the Nike Hoop Summit in 1993. (Technically it was called "Nike Hoops Festival High School All Star Game" at that time, while the proper Nike Hoop Summit started in 1995.)

Next Big Thing in Basketball? - Top Talent Aquille Carr
High-school Point Guard Aquille Carr (Patterson High School) is definitely one of the top talents in US high-school basketball.
The 5 ft 6 player (or "somewhat generously listed at 5 feet 7, in sneakers, including his hair" Washington Post) is incredibly quick, has really excellent ball-handling skills (Steve Nash-like) and the athleticism to dunk despite his height.
In April 2011, Aquille Carr played on the U.S. junior basketball team in the Junior International Tournament in Italy, Europe. He led the team to capture the gold medal and averaged 40.0 points per game.
Watch the two basketball videos - Aquille Carr is top talent and a must-see phenomenon.
