<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>District 16 could be a very fun to watch! There are a lot of fast paced players that can put points on the board. I'm going to give you my predictions and some players to watch in this district.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>FIRST ROUND</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Salem v. Plymouth</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is a really intriguing 1st round matchup. They split the regular season, with Plymouth winning the most recent by 1 point. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction - Salem</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Belleville vs. Ypsilanti</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There will be some fast paced play making on the court in this matchyp.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction - Belleville</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>SEMIFINAL</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ypsilanti Lincoln v. Salem</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ypsilanti Lincoln had a 14 game winning streak this season. But Salem has some players that can matchup and give Lincoln headaches.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction - Ypsilanti Lincoln</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Canton v. Belleville </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This could be an instant classic. They have common opponents, but the scores in those game are nearly identical.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction - Belleville</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>DISTRICT FINAL</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ypsilanti Lincoln v. Belleville</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These 2 opened the season against each other, and now one could end their season against each other. If the season opener was any indication, a 51-50 win for Lincoln, this could be a great game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prediction - Ypsilanti Lincoln</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PLAYERS TO WATCH</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Landen Stone","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"77246","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Salem","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69986c5ff255c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Watch out for this true point guard!

He's shown that he can shoot off the bounce as well. If Tramble gets hot, Canton has a good shot!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

District 16 could be a very fun to watch! There are a lot of fast paced players that can put points on the board. I'm going to give you my predictions and some players to watch in this district.
