He does a great job of being in the right spot for offensive rebounds (he had 6). If it weren't for some of his second chance points, Desert Pines would have been in some real danger of losing. However they came out with the win, 72-62. Redding collected 18 points in all, and was the game's leading scorer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Redding was also Desert Pines second leading scorer on Monday, and had 10 points. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2374347"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6751d4df2eca9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McMorran II had his first 30 point game of the season against Cheyenne. He was getting to his spots with efficiency and buried a bunch of pull up jumpers and 3's. I also noticed that he was playing aggressively on defense, and it paid off. In addition to his 30 points, he also gathered 6 steals. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McMorran also helped Desert Pines secure the win against Chaparral, he had 16 points and and had another 4 steals. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1490283"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6751d4df2eb94"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Amare's best game so far this week came against The Meadows School on Monday night. The 6'6 junior was unstoppable on offense, and finished with 39 points. He was splashing 3's, getting to the line, and had a couple of dunks as well. His performance also helped Basic get the win, the final score was 72-62.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In his other games this week, Oba put up 15 points and 12 rebounds in against Mojave, and 17 points and 10 rebounds against Foothill.

In the second half he was a part of Foothill's comeback and added another 5 points.
