<ol start="45"> <li><strong> 6-7 PF [player_tooltip player_id="983506" first="Delrecco" last="Gillespie"] – East Coweta </strong></li> </ol> <p>A move from Michigan in the middle of the season put [player_tooltip player_id="983506" first="Delrecco" last="Gillespie"] on our radar. He’s a physical low post presence with soft hands and skilled feet inside. He knows how to use his frame to his advantage, powering up strong through defenders. Gillespie also has growing range on his perimeter shot. He’s a D-I target.</p> <ol start="47"> <li><strong> 6-5 W [player_tooltip player_id="1158370" first="Josh" last="Fulton"] – GAC</strong></li> </ol> <p>When [player_tooltip player_id="1158370" first="Josh" last="Fulton"] gets hot, he can take over games. He’s a three-level scorer that excels at getting to the basket. When he explodes to the hoop, he has the strength and bounce to finish at the rim.

Chol doesn’t shoot it as well as Ododa, but he’s a game-changing rim protector. Offensively, he’s comfortable at the high post as a passer. Howard has offered.</p> <ol start="68"> <li><strong> 6-4 CG [player_tooltip player_id="1199604" first="Patrick" last="Shelley"] – Darlington</strong></li> </ol> <p>All the physical traits are there for [player_tooltip player_id="1199604" first="Patrick" last="Shelley"] to really stamp his presence on Georgia.

The physically imposing slasher overpowers defenders when getting to the rim. Chatman has added a pull-up jumper to his arsenal and is in the process of extending his range.</p>
