He's one of the best guards still available in a talented class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Turner Clayton, Walker Valley: Clayton holds offers from Lee, Young Harris, and Simpson. The 6-3 guard is coming off a season in which he helped the Mustangs reach the TSSAA Division 1 Class 4A state title game. During the state tournament, Clayton averaged 15 points and 1.5 steals on 48 percent shooting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jayden Mitchell, Bartlett: Mitchell sits with one offer from Shawnee Community College. Mitchell is a 6-0 guard that plays physical on the defensive end. He's a capable shot maker from 3-point range. Mitchell is a team player. There's a college program that can use a guard that can contribute on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Burton Cox, Jo Byrns: Cox averaged 10.2 points, 5.1 assists, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.3 steals per game this past season while shooting 53 percent from the field. Cox is a 5-9 guard that was effective at both guard positions. He can get into the paint and finish at the rim. Cox, who's being recruited by Welch College, is deadly from the perimeter. He could bring good value to a college program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
