Continue ReadingThe 4A tournament was another classification loaded with talent, including several guys that will go to high majors. Time to see who earned first team All Tournament honors.
First Team:
G- Jacob Daniels, 5’9″, Fr. – The young guard had an outstanding game in a heartbreaking semifinal loss to Andrew Jackson High. Daniels posted 21 points and was a perfect 9-9 from the line. As only a freshman, Daniels has really impressed me and I expect him to make a significant leap this off season.
G- Michael Swift Michael Swift 5'11" | PG Andrew Jackson | 2023 State FL , 6’3″, Jr. – Swift is 100% a name you will be hearing very often next year. The junior guard was active both offensively and defensively, totaling 13 points and grabbing 4 steals in the semifinal win. He was even better in the championship against a top 5 team in the country, Calvary Christian. Swift grabbed 5 boards and had 14 points in a hard fought game. College coaches better be aware of the name Michael Swift Michael Swift 5'11" | PG Andrew Jackson | 2023 State FL .
G- Marvel Allen Marvel Allen 6'4" | SG Ft. Lauderdale Calvary Christian | 2023 State #46 Nation FL , 6’5″, Jr. – Not much to say about the LSU commit that isn’t already known. He capped off his junior year with a 19 point performance in the semi and 13 points in the blowout championship win. Marvel is reminiscent of a Ja Morant type guard; he embodies the phrase “explosive playmaker.”
G/F- Brice Sensabaugh Brice Sensabaugh 6'6" | PF Lake Highland Prep | 2022 State #104 Nation FL , 6’6″, Sr. – Much like Marvel, there won’t be anything new here. There is a reason the senior forward is going to Ohio State next year. Sensabaugh has phenomenal range and can get in the paint with ease. He is a big body and uses it to his advantage. Against a team loaded with D1 prospects, Brice did not disappoint, posting 25 points, 7 rebounds, and maybe most importantly zero turnovers. The Big 10 is exactly where he belongs.
F- Taylor Hendricks Taylor Hendricks 6'9" | PF Calvary Christian (FL) | 2022 State #124 Nation FL , 6’10″, Sr. – The UCF commit played a great game in the semi final game, scoring 18 points and blocking 4 shots. His physical presence in the paint forced a tough shot every possession. The big man is just as good guarding the perimeter. Taylor nearly had a double-double in the final, scoring 11 and grabbing 9 rebounds. He also led the team with 4 blocks and added 3 steals to the stuffed stat sheet.
Honorable Mention:
F- Gregg Glenn Gregg Glenn 6'7" | PF Calvary Christian (FL) | 2022 State #161 Nation FL , 6’8″, Sr. – The 4 star Michigan commit started off the tournament relatively slow, only scoring 6 points in the semifinal, but dishing 5 assists. He heated up in the final, going off for a game high 19 points with 7 boards and 4 steals. Easy to see why he is going to Michigan.
F- Jacquez Day, 6’5″, Sr. – Day is my top sleeper from the state tournament. While he is 6’5″, he plays even bigger than that. Day is a talented post defender and challenges every shot, which led to 5 blocks in the semi. The senior also grabbed a game high 14 rebounds. Watching Jacquez play, it became evident that he was a natural born leader.
G- Ronald Durham, 6’3″, So. – Durham is another one of my sleepers from the tournament. He has a really smooth jumper and can take defenders off the dribble. He scored 11 in the semifinal with 4 steals. Coming off the bench as a sophomore, his impact was felt for the Tigers of Andrew Jackson. Expect to see his role increase next year, as starting guard Kevin Odom Kevin Odom 5'7" | PG Jackson | 2022 State FL is set to graduate this year.
