By: Kris Watkins Follow @KrisWatkinsPSB
2021-Sutton Smith-Denmark High School
Smith is one of the states top PG’s and does everything you want for your team to win each game. Was named Region Player of the Year as a Sophomore last year after averaging 17ppg/4apg. He is an excellent passer with either hand and gets into the paint as well as anyone and is a threat from 3 each time the floor. Leader on the floor with a High IQ that shows on the floor and in the classroom.
#SHReportTV Highlights from November 2018
2020-Titus Brown-Franklin County
Named all Region and All State as a Junior. Can fill it up from all over the floor. Gets downhill in transition and can finish through contact, excellent outside shooter. Brown has heard from numerous 2 and 4 year schools and expect him to be a name on coaches radars all season long.
#SHReportTV Highlights from June 2019
2020-Jasper Gibson-Dawson County
Gibson is one of the most accomplished players in North Georgia in recent years already scoring over 1000+ points early in his Junior campaign last season and hasn’t looked back. He has really been working on his game and has really developed in terms of his ability to put the ball on the floor and create his own shot as well as make plays for others over the last year which will serve him well when he moves to the next level after this year to play at Division II Emmanuel College. Gibson is a relentless worker who is constantly in the gym working to improve his game.
#SHReportTV Highlghts from NCAAGeorgia Teamp Camp June 2019
2020- 6’6 Sean-Pierre Akers-Kennedy-Mountain View
To say he was one of my most favorite prospects to watch this summer at the NCAA Georgia Team Camp would be an understatement. Standing at a legit 6’6 if not taller he has a diverse skill set that makes him so intriguing for the next level with his ability on the defensive and offensive ends of the floor.
6’6 Sean Pierre Akers Kennedy of @MVHSBearsBB has been one of my biggest stock risers of the weekend
-Alters Shots
-Can Stretch to 3
-Effective Passer out of post
-Rebounds
-Scores at rim @seanpierre957@OntheRadarHoops— Dr. Kris Watkins (@DrKrisWatkins) June 23, 2019
2020- 6’0 Andrew McConnell-Lanier High School
One of the Nation’s Top Point guards who is rated as a 4 Star guard by 24-7 Sports. Doesn’t see a shot he is afraid to take whether it is spotted up or off the dribble. Has the ball on a string that makes him tough to guard with his ability to generate his own offense or drive and kick to the open teammate.
