“I’m a scorer; but my jumpshot is the main thing I do to score,” George said. “My defense has gotten better – I buy in on it more now.”
George says he and his teammates have started the season well.
“The season has started good, but I know for a fact it can be way better,” George stated. “(Both) for my teammates and myself.”
In the classroom at the high school, George says he is a hard worker.
“I’m a good student; when it’s time to focus, I focus,” the player noted.
Although he hasn’t received any direct offers yet, George has been shown interest from Lincoln Memorial, Eastern Kentucky and Kansas State, and says that more college coaches and programs should start to reach out because he gives his all.
“I think my game should catch colleges’ attention because I play different and I’m a bigger guard that can shoot,” George added.
