<p>The season is less than a week away. For a different type of season preview, I wanted to find one "X-Factor" in each of Kentucky's districts for this season. Here are 64 X-Factors for the 24-25 season, one for district in the state.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">As a freshman last season, Rose averaged 8 points and 9 rebounds per game and he can be an even bigger contributor as a Sophomore. There's good reason to believe that Kyle should average a double-double this year and he's one of the few "bigs" in the entire region.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Perry is another Sophomore who had a very solid Freshman season last year. Perry's stock could take a huge boost this season if he can showcase improved shooting efficiency. Hayden had shooting splits of 36-25-71 last year but could average close to 20 points per game if he can raise his shooting numbers 5-10% this year.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Rowe had a shortened Sophomore season after recovering from a torn ACL but he should be back into form now. Will is more of a floor general at the PG spot than a scorer but with all the losses to graduation for Pikeville, Rowe needs to be ready to shoulder a big load. If he and [player_tooltip player_id='1543312' first='Jackson' last='Keene'] can be a top duo in the region, the Panthers won't take much of a step back.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Coach Perry is very high on Little and his long-term potential. In the short term, Brody is going to have a very big role for the Pirates. He and [player_tooltip player_id='2611200' first='Jaxon' last='Estridge'] should be the cornerstone for Belfry this season and Brody should be expected to flourish in his new school after transferring from Pikeville this summer.</p>
