He has begun to use his size more consistently inside, making him extremely difficult to defend whenever he gets deep post position. Entering with Power 4 offers is [player_tooltip player_id='2125516' first='Braydon' last='Langston']. Staying healthy is the determining factor of how good East Hall will be. When Langston is on the floor, they can play with anybody as his length, motor and athleticism are among the best in Georgia. Westminster typically uses a balanced offensive attack predicated on strong guard play, but with key pieces graduating, the offense may start to gravitate more around [player_tooltip player_id='2887552' first='Conrad' last='Ogden'], a swingman on the verge of breaking out. North Atlanta has an impressive three-headed attack in the backcourt behind [player_tooltip player_id='2635296' first='Jace' last='Edwards'], [player_tooltip player_id='2275458' first='Ben' last='Howery'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2826765' first='RJ' last='Scott'], a dynamic two-way difference maker. Hebron Christian is a well-oiled machine when all their pieces are in place. [player_tooltip player_id='2125559' first='Lukas' last='Romine'] exploits mismatches inside and out. [player_tooltip player_id='3266104' first='Ashton' last='Burt'] is coming into his own while [player_tooltip player_id='2515201' first='TJ' last='Matthews'] is a steady defender. If [player_tooltip player_id='3266103' first='Zaiden' last='Nelson'] is still with the Lions, he is a takeover type guard with his scoring touch. Keep an eye on sharpshooters [player_tooltip player_id='2434203' first='Bobby' last='Harpring'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2452935' first='Vance' last='Wilder'] to power their respective teams from beyond the arc. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
