Tuesday’s Best Wings

<p>Tuesdays are in short supply.  Yes, the nationwide supply-chain issues are hitting us right where it hurts most, our collective basketball soul.</p> <p>We need to enjoy the Tuesdays while we still have them.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Best Wing Performances</span></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1373406" first="Lee" last="Molette"]</strong> (Ravenwood) played excellent defense, at times guarding a potential District MVP in [player_tooltip player_id="1214939" first="Daniel" last="Cochran"].  Molette is a player that often left me wanting more during his underclassmen career, but now he is a great two-way player at the highest AAAA level.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="787649" first="Brandon" last="Miller"]</strong> was so smooth, so very smooth.  Unsurprisingly. Miller ran the floor with grace and uncommon elegance.  The recently named McDonald’s All-American, Miller slipped into the lane via euro-step and calmly completed a scooping layup on the run.  Miller’s stats were amazing, as always. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1201721" first="Jack" last="Browder"]</strong> had another big game: 18 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, 4 steals.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1259362" first="Nehemiah" last="Holmes"]</strong> pumped in 26 points tonight.  His team pulled away from a strong Columbia Academy team, 77-59.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1180592" first="Markese" last="Washington"]</strong> came out hungry and gobbled up two early field goal attempts.  His team played with tremendous defensive eagerness in both the halfcourt and fullcourt.  Washington’s ability to create from the wing really helped decimate a strong Wolverine defense in the opening quarter. Is there another team in the state with a Markese on the wing?!  Beech seems like the only answer.  [player_tooltip player_id="787649" first="Brandon" last="Miller"] is actually the point guard for Cane Ridge on most plays, or he would be a solution to this query.  Markese gives the team so many extra possessions with offensive rebounding and high effort.  </p> <p>https://twitter.com/mattleflore/status/1486179958733037568?s=20</p> <p>Sophomore<strong> Billy Richmond</strong> scored those eight points.  It must be mentioned that Memphis East just beat the #8 team in the state and plays the #2 team in the state Thursday.</p> <p><strong>Bennett Lane</strong> (Knox Halls) was great Tuesday night.</p> <p><strong>Aydan Rauton</strong> (South-Doyle) put up 10 points I'm victory.  The senior is averaging 14 ppg, 6 rpg on 54% shooting.  </p> <p>Josh Roberts lead M.B.A. in scoring tonight with 19 points.  They blew out Father Ryan.</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1236443" first="Joshua" last="Heard"]</strong> (Cookeville) exploded for 24 points on 7-11 shooting.  He made 4-6 three-pointers and also delivered 4 assists.</p>
