<h2><strong>Region 1-6A<br />
<br />
</strong></h2>
<p><strong>1. 2021 6-8 F [player_tooltip player_id="754299" first="Jordan" last="Brown"] – Northside-Warner Robins</strong></p>
<p>Dynamic versatile forward that moves exceptionally well. Great rim protector thanks to his mobility and length. Covers a lot of ground defensively. Can occasionally handle the ball on the perimeter and can hit the open three. Has value at multiple positions. <a href="http://www.hudl.com/video/3/10566162/5e3f1caf578d7f128c14b964"><em><strong>HIGHLIGHTS</strong></em></a></p>
<p><strong>2. 2021 5-8 G MJ Taylor – Lee County</strong></p>
<p>Reigning Offensive Player of the Year for the region. Averaged 12.8 points per game. Has the quickness to get to the basket. Has a nice jump shot and streaky three-point range. Can disrupt offenses with his on-ball pressure.</p>

<p><strong>3. 2021 6-0 PG Tre Grane – Northside-Warner Robins</strong></p>

<p><strong>4. 2021 5-8 PG [player_tooltip player_id="869630" first="HB" last="Morgan"] – Houston County</strong></p>
<p>Undersized guard makes things happen with his speed and toughness. Creates separation on the perimeter. Not afraid to challenge shot blockers. Averaged 10.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2 steals. <em><strong><a href="http://www.hudl.com/video/3/10547313/5e547306e98587120805fb85">HIGHLIGHTS</a></strong></em></p>
<p><strong>5. 2021 6-0 G Melvin Smith Jr. – Valdosta</strong></p>
<p>Athletic guard that thrived as an ancillary option. Provided aggressive defense and scored when needed. Did a good job of helping the offense flow with his passing. Averaged 9.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.2 steals. Should be in-line for major upticks across the board. <em><strong><a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2DT5Xw">HIGHLIGHTS</a></strong></em></p>
