Bi-District Commentators notes

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> Broadcasting on Dave Campbell's Texan Live where two classic Bi-District matchups occurred, I have the privilege to call both. South Houston vs C.E. King and Manvel vs Barbers Hill games went into overtime. Barbers Hill and Manvel took two extra periods to decide. Clutch playmaking ability was displayed now let's dive into who stood out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1371864"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Thomas was brought intensity on both ends of the floor. Kept his poise when the double came his way. Consistency made plays finishing at the rim or passing to the open man down the stretch. Put the team on his back in the 4th quarter. Going to be difficult keeping him out the paint with his strength. Provided inside-outside threat for the Panthers. Loves to isolate from wing taking the angle the defense allows him.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":2361145,"_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"J'Mar Franklin","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"C.E.

Never allowed the defense to dictate his pace. The floor general made sure his team was in the right spot before running the set. Great IQ in help defense reading the passing option. Though scrappy guard that will get by anybody in open space. Late in the game there was times he got to the paint finishing over longer defenders.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1731361"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Made it difficult for South Houston to get any points at the rim.

Guard with quick first step that finds the open man after drawing  defenders. Keeps the ball in the middle of the floor, and in half-court setting gets in the middle of the paint. His shot wasn't falling, but Buckner hit a step-back three late in overtime that help South Houston get the game within  reach. Applied ball pressure which gave some King ball handlers trouble advancing past half-court. The 2025 guard is poised to have a big summer.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":2361616,"_player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"Ifeanyi Okoro","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"6'6u0022","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"Manvel High School","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_5_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Okra opened my eyes with his interior presence. Barbers Hill came out in zone, and Okoro took advantage of the middle. Player that can make decisions in the middle of the zone. Soft touch on his close shots as well. What stood out was his motor. Okoro inserted him on the boards, and dived all over the floor. My favorite moment was a teammate complaining about he was open, looked at the Manvel sophomore saying, u0022I got you.u0022 Calmed him down that quick in a crucial moment.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"Fourest Mills ","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"Manvel High School","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_6_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"From the beginning, Mills was a factor.
