<p>As I said in the previous story, TSSAA District 16 Class 4A had a lot of talent in it.</p>
<p>It was one of the toughest districts in the state this season.</p>
<p>Here’s who made the second-team.</p>
<p><strong>Isaiah</strong> <strong>Regular</strong>, Memphis Overton: The 6-foot-7 senior forward made a difference for the Wolverines whenever he was on the floor, averaging 12 points and 13.5 rebounds per game in league play. Offensively, he can make shots from the perimeter and catch lobs in transition and in half-court. Defensively, he can alter shots at the rim. Regular was one of the premier big men in the league this season.</p>
<p><strong>Jherrone</strong> <strong>Jones</strong>, Memphis Overton: Jones was a highlight reel all season long. The senior guard was also one of the best catch-and-shoot guys on the floor in league play. Jones averaged 20.1 points per game, which included a lot of whoa dunks.</p>
<p><strong>Chip</strong> <strong>Brunt</strong>, Whitehaven: In his first and only season playing for the Tigers, the senior combo guard helped the program finish second in the league. Brunt was right behind [player_tooltip player_id="1021772" first="Kristian" last="Spencer"] in scoring at 18.9 points per game. </p>
<p><strong>Billy</strong> <strong>Richmond</strong>, Memphis East: The 6-6 sophomore combo guard showed promise of his full potential this season, with his ability to push the ball up the floor in transition and crash the boards. Richmond’s scoring ability was on display as well, as he can make shots from the perimeter. Richmond averaged 11 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 7.4 assists in league play.</p>
<p><strong>Alijah</strong> <strong>Curry</strong>, Memphis East: The Mustangs had balance this season, and Curry was definitely in the mix. The 6-8 sophomore forward averaged 13 points and 12 rebounds for Memphis East in league play, showing moments of how high is upside is.</p>
