Games I Attended
Walton (70) vs South Cobb (65)
Walton came away with the win on Tuesday night despite a valiant effort from South Cobb’s seniors. Luke Flynn Luke Flynn 6'2" | PG Walton | 2024 State GA led all scorers with 28 and he’s playing like one of the best guards in the state right now. Sophomore Caesar Burrows Caesar Burrows 6'4" | CG Walton | 2025 State GA had a big, 14-point third quarter that shifted the momentum in Walton’s favor and ultimately changed the game. Jermaine Freeman and Joshua Miles each had 19 points for South Cobb.
Westside Macon (76) vs Shiloh (73)
Westside Macon grinded out a big win over Shiloh in a 2OT thriller. Tyrell Cordy had the hot hand, scoring 28 points on 6 three-pointers. Daveon Henderson Daveon Henderson 6'0" | CG Westside-Macon | 2023 State GA hit the game-winning layup, a tough finish with 5 seconds left in 2OT to win the game for Westside. Shiloh’s backcourt duo, Nazir Griffin and Emmanuel Okogie Emmanuel Okogie 6'1" | CG Shiloh | 2023 State GA , did some nice things but Westside did a good job of containing Tylis Jordan Tylis Jordan 6'9" | SF Shiloh | 2025 State #79 Nation GA .
Greenforest (54) vs Gaston Christian (52)
Through the first month of the season, this may have been the best game I’ve seen so far. Caleb Kawela hit the game-winning layup to beat the buzzer and he looked really good throughout the game. He’s a strong-bodied forward that showcased a nice shooting touch as well on Saturday. DK Manyiel DK Manyiel 7'0" | C Greenforest | 2023 State GA finished with 18 and hit some important shots in big moments. Freshman Cameron Newman Cameron Newman 5'11" | PG Gaston Christian | 2026 State NC was extremely impressive for Gaston Christian, scoring the ball in some creative ways.
Westlake (63) vs Riverwood (53)
Westlake ended up getting the win in a hard-fought afternoon game. Riverwood tried to push the pace early on and were able to get out in transition but Westlake’s physical forwards proved to be too much. Rodrecus Rouse Rodrecus Rouse 6'5" | PF Westlake | 2023 State GA was tough inside for Westlake and finished with 23 points. Karris Bilal Karris Bilal 6'2" | PG Riverwood | 2024 State #243 Nation GA and JR Leonard provided good scoring for Riverwood as well.
Knoxville Catholic (71) vs Mt. Pisgah (46)
This one didn’t turn out to be much of a game as Micah Tucker Micah Tucker 6'3" | PG Huntington Prep | 2025 State #290 Nation WV , Pisgah’s centerpiece, went down early with an injury. Knoxville Catholic was exciting nonetheless. They’ve got an interesting mix of sharpshooters and bucket-getters that make them a lethal offensive team. Deondrea Lindsey Deondrea Lindsey 6'7" | PF Oak Hill Academy | 2025 #115 Nation VA impressed me with his combination of size, skill & athleticism. He finished with 14 to lead Knoxville Catholic. Freshman Cade Murphy also showcased some great shotmaking ability and plays year beyond his age.
