Nightly Standouts (1/14)
<p>Here are some top performers across the state of Georgia from January 14, 2020</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2020 6-0 CG Titus Brown</span> – Franklin County</strong></p>
<p>Missing their entire frontcourt due to either injury or the flu, Class 3A No. 4 Franklin County suffered an 87-78 double overtime loss to East Jackson. In the defeat, Titus Brown did everything he could to lift the Lions with 32 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. Brown is a tough-nosed scorer that can fill it up from all three levels. He’s a shifty finisher at the rim and a quiet yet fierce competitor.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2020 6-4 CG Jordan Jefferson</span> – Osborne</strong></p>
<p>With 32 points, 6 assists and 4 steals, Jordan Jefferson got Osborne back in the win column with a 95-75 blowout of Dalton. Jefferson is a long combo guard that gets downhill in a hurry. He is averaging 15.6 points per game and is worthy of D-II looks.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2022 6-2 PG Scooter Henderson</span> – Kell</strong></p>
<p>The relentless five-star guard went for 41 points in Kell’s crucial 70-67 overtime win against Hiram. Known for his aggressiveness and athleticism, Henderson buried 5 threes to balance the onslaught. As Henderson continues to grow the consistency of his jump shot and vary speeds with the ball, he will continue to ascend national rankings.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2020 6-6 G Eugene Brown III</span> – Southwest DeKalb – <em>Ohio State</em></strong></p>
<p>Though his senior season hasn’t gone as smoothly as it could have if UGA-signee KD Johnson didn’t transfer out, Southwest DeKalb is still 11-8 and Eugene Brown has still shined. In a 56-55 overtime win at Colombia, the future Buckeye poured in 30 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks. For the first time in his high school career Brown has been the number one option for his father. Brown has shouldered the load this season and his newfound role as alpha dog will only behoove him come college.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2020 5-10 G Brandon Thomas</span> – Marion County</strong></p>
<p>Brandon Thomas pumped in 44 points in an 89-83 win over Central-Talbotton. The victory pushes the Eagles to 8-3 overall and 4-1 in Region 4-A play.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2022 6-3 G Chance Thacker</span> – Providence Christian Academy<br />
</strong>Off to their best start in school-history, Providence Christian likely punched their ticket into the Class A-Private Top 10 by beating No. 10 Riverside Military 68-59. Chance Thacker, son of first-year Head Coach Joey Thacker, piled in 21 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists.</p>
