Best Class AAA Players Remaining: Part III

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Class AAA is so deep and stocked with talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Of the 16 remaining Class AAA teams many players both deserve recognition and instill fear in opponents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>To be considered for this or future stories, always DM <a href="https://twitter.com/PrepHoopsTN">@PrepHoopsTN</a>.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1263007' first='Tylon' last='Chatman']</strong> (Haywood) provides west Tennessee with its best point guard. Quick, steady, dependable, skilled. Chatman is wildly, disturbingly unknown throughout most of the state simply because of his geographic location. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1345229' first='Matthew' last='Bilbrey']</strong> (Stone Memorial) makes Stone Memorial a balanced scoring team. Unassuming in demeanor, MB makes points happen. Nice, repeatable shooting motion. Can dribble well enough to get to his spots, though Matthew is not carving up defenses with elaborate bounces.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1381653' first='Denaj' last='Kimber']</strong> (Fulton) scores at an elite level. Kimber won District MVP in 2022.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tahj Kimber</strong> (Fulton) displays future college scorer attributes on the regular.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1262939' first='Janerus' last='Snipe']</strong> (Haywood) is certain to sign a college basketball scholarship. Expect him to wind up at a strong JuCo with another step beyond that down the line. Snipe is an incredible rebounder. Few teams in the state are able to run out a bull under the tin halo the ilk of Snipe.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Chad Barham</strong> (Chester County) reached 1,000 career points in February. Barham is a big dude, a solid 210-pound rebounder. If the Eagles feed Barham on the blocks, then it is over. Huge shoulders. Huge legs. Barham powers his way to an "easy" bucket. CB is not tall, by Class AAA standards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Michael Pirtle</strong> (Chester County) gives his squad a unique look at the guard position. He can handle, shoot a little bit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">South Gibson Basketball Roster</span><br>#1 Noah Clouse* (2024)<br>#5 Louis Ciancolo* (2023)<br>#10 Landon Dowdy (2024)<br>#11 [player_tooltip player_id='1831180' first='Camden' last='Lockett']* (2023)<br>#20 Ashton England* (2023)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Chester County Basketball Roster</span><br>#2<br>#3 Michael Pirtle* (2023) 6'3" 164<br>#11 Quaderious Gaines (2023) 6'3" 160<br>#20 Hunter McLemore* (2024) 6'2" 205<br>#22 Amari Massengill* (2024)<br>#23 Chad Barham* (2024) 6'3" 210</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Participating AAA Teams</span><br>Unicoi County*<br>Carter<br>Volunteer*<br>Knoxville Halls<br>Fulton<br>Stone Memorial*<br>White County*<br>Austin-East*<br>Ridgeway<br>Ripley<br>Haywood*<br>Fayette Ware*<br>Chester County<br>South Gibson*<br>Martin Luther King<br>Murfreesboro Central Magnet</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
