Continue ReadingThe Russ Day Jamboree at Bourbon County High School allowed many coaches to get a first look at their teams against other competition. It was a great day of basketball to get the chance to see some schools for the first time this year.
Outlook: Bath County was missing some players but came away pretty impressed with their team, especially with Zack Otis Zack Otis 6'0" | CG Bath County | 2023 State KY . Anytime you have a player that has the ability to score like him, your team has a chance. Really liked how each player had a role and played it well. As they get a full roster, this will be a team that will sneak up on teams and compete for the regional title.
Otis showcased his high level scoring ability dropping 42 points vs a very good Lafayette team. He scored in just about every way possible, shooting from deep, in the mid-range and at the basket. Very physical driver that does a good job initiating and playing thru contact. Knockdown shooter when given space. Ultra competitor with a high motor. Is able to get some easy baskets with how hard he plays. Impressive scorer.
Highlights
Jayce Smith
Jayce Smith
Smith brings a tough, hard working mindset to Bath County. Does a lot of the dirty work for them, getting rebounds and loose balls to get extra possessions. Smith does a good job holding his own in the post defending bigger and stronger players. High motor.
Montana Brewer
Montana Brewer
Brewer is a wing with good size and length. Showed some good things on the perimeter driving to the basket. Struggled finishing at times but it will come as he gets stronger. Good form on his jump shot. With his size, poses as a mismatch on the perimeter.
Brayden Roussos
Brayden Roussos
Roussos is an active wing / forward that is at his best driving to the basket and cutting. Loved how he attacked both the offense and defensive glass. Did all the small things to get easy baskets and teammates involved.
Sorrell hit a couple tough shots from 3pt range. Was really impressed him coming off ball screens looking to score. Does a good job getting in the paint and finishing thru contact. Good defender getting in passing lanes.
