POLL: Who is the frontrunner for Class 6A Player of the Year?
In this article:
The Virginia Tech-commit is arguably one of the most entertaining guards in the southeast to watch, not only for his deep three-point range, but his elite handle and ability to lead. Rechsteiner is an explosive scorer and high-level playmaker.
Highlights
The reigning Class 6A Player of the Year averaged 17 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. He initially committed to Winthrop before decommitting in late October. Sherman’s ability to play inside and out makes him a major mismatch. If Sherman can lead his team to another state title, he may be a lock to repeat as POY.
Highlights
A midseason addition to Habersham Central, Osmar posted 17.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game, shining as a highly skilled point-forward. Now at Lanier, Garcia teams with

to form a formidable low post duo. Garcia has terrific versatility. He handles the ball and sees the floor extremely well. Osmar is a physical low block scorer that will record a handful of double-doubles this year.

was a bright spot emerging as an elite scorer, netting 30.2 points per game, second in the GHSA. Bilal used his springboard into committing to Vanderbilt this offseason.
Last year’s Class 5A Most Improved Player ballooned from 5.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.1 blocks per game to 18.4 points, 10.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 3.4 blocks per game. Rogers is a Belmont-commit.
