Schools are in session and teams are having open gyms and workouts in preparation for the upcoming season. There has been a lot of movement this spring and summer as players have transferred. Here’s a look at some impact transfers in the Senior class. [player_tooltip player_id="692942" first="Christian" last="Spalding"], Eastern --> Evangel Christian - Probably the biggest transfer this summer, Christian holds numerous scholarship offers and could be the missing piece for an Evangel team in desperate need of better guard play. The Eagles are the biggest team in Kentucky, size wise and now have a top guard to go with them. [player_tooltip player_id="801625" first="Tanner" last="Walton"], LCA --> George Rogers Clark - Walton has been one of the top players in Lexington for the last few years but hasn't had a ton of team success trying to get out of a loaded district. Now at GRC, Tanner will have a smaller role than he had at LCA but should see plenty of open shots thanks to a deep and talented Cardinal roster. [player_tooltip player_id="801598" first="Miles" last="Franklin"], Trinity --> Ballard - It's rare to see a big transfer from one rival to another but Miles did just that this summer. Ballard has a super talented roster and Franklin should be able to carve out a role as he is able to play on or off the ball on offense and is a good defender. [player_tooltip player_id="1203225" first="Kaden" last="Stanton"], Jeffersonville (IN) --> Ballard - Another new Bruin, Kaden comes from across the bridge to play his Senior season for Coach Renner. Stanton is more facilitator than scorer and should be everyone's favorite teammate as he is such a willing passer and often sacrifices his own stats in order to keep teammates happy. [player_tooltip player_id="926913" first="Charlie" last="Storm"], Eastern --> Fern Creek - Back where he started his high school career, Storm has been known around Louisville as a big time catch and shoot player for years. The Tigers will be playing a fast pace and Charlie should be able to see his fair share of transition three opportunities.
