Bubba Donald: Moeller's Returning Guard Has an All-Ohio Foundation for 2026–27
Bubba Donald enters the 2026–27 conversation with more than a familiar name on Moeller's roster. The Class of 2028 guard earned Division I third-team All-Ohio recognition as a sophomore, while the GCL South coaches selected him to their first team. Those honors establish why his next season deserves attention in Cincinnati.
The production behind the outlook
Moeller's 2025–26 cumulative statistics show the work behind that recognition: 286 points in 24 appearances, 23 starts and a 40.4 percent mark from three-point range on 57 attempts. He also recorded 61 assists and 38 steals. That combination gives his feature several dimensions: scoring, distribution and possessions created on defense.
What to watch in 2026–27
The Crusaders finished the school statistics page at 18–6 with a 5–1 league record. Donald's production came inside that successful team framework, alongside younger contributors Jayden Davis and Carson Trenz. A returning guard who already has experience sharing responsibility offers a useful starting point for the next group.
The next question is how Donald handles the extra attention earned by an All-Ohio season. Maintaining good shot selection while continuing to connect teammates will be a meaningful measure of progress. His sophomore record supplies the evidence; the junior season will show how much more responsibility he can carry.
