Continue ReadingThe Senior class is winding down their KHSAA careers and getting ready for the next level. It’s been a good class for a long time and a ton of these players will be making an impact in college over the course of their careers. Let’s take a look at the top point guards in this latest rankings update. This does not include any players who were in the top 10 in the class.
Rigdon continues to be one of the best players in the mountains and is a big time scoring guard. He’s already committed to Pikeville and will likely be an impact player at that NAIA level.
Kyran is one of the best on-ball defenders in the state, regardless of class. Tilley is a good athlete who plays hard and has a high IQ. He holds an offer from Georgetown College and should see more offers coming his way. He’s a D1 talent.
Custard is a two sport star who holds college scholarship offers in football but is equally capable of making an impact in college on the basketball court. He’s currently slowed by a broken hand but Kaydon will be a difference maker when 10th region tournament time rolls around.
Highlights
Jackson is very athletic and can get into the paint consistently on offense. Defensively, DeShaun has the ability to sit down and guard against some of the best guards in the state when he wants to. DJ is the X factor in Newport’s pursuit of a state title, in my opinion.
Jack has been overshadowed over his career on a loaded Lyon County team but he’s a definite scholarship player in college and I would argue Reddick is the second most valuable player on the Lyons roster. They would not be seeing the same amount of sustained success without his presence.
