OTR Sweet 16: Notables Pt. 2

<p><strong>2022 5-11 G Jordyan Keith – Warner Robins All-Stars – Warner Robins <br /> 2022 6-0 G Rashun Williams – Warner Robins All-Stars – Warner Robins</strong></p> <p>The tandem of Jordyan Keith and Rashun Williams scorched the nets in a 69-68 loss to the Alabama Generals. Williams and Keith hit 4 threes apiece. Keith finished with 15 points and 4 rebounds while Williams had 14 points and a steal. Both do a great job of spacing the floor and getting their feet set. They are zone busters that can kill defensive rotations with their shooting from the corners. Their quick triggers and willingness to swing the ball until one gets an open look will torment zones all year.</p> <p><strong>2022 6-5 SF Daquan Brown – Warner Robins All-Stars – Macon County</strong></p> <p>One of the more interesting sleepers this weekend was Daquan Brown. He’s a wiry swingman that can play either 3 or 4. He’s athletic and capable of defending multiple positions. Brown impacted the game on the glass, adding a few putbacks and also grabbing rebounds and pushing the ball. His activity in the paint led to 14 points and 8 rebounds. He has tools that could attract college recruiters.</p> <p><strong>2021 6-4 F [player_tooltip player_id="1043314" first="Greg" last="Jones"] – Warner Robins All-Stars – Warner Robins</strong></p> <p>Back from a broken elbow, [player_tooltip player_id="1043314" first="Greg" last="Jones"] could be a great late addition that has slipped through the cracks. He’s a major competitor on the backboards and can score inside and out. He has quality footwork and a nice scoring touch when working the baseline. Jones’ motor and nose for the ball help him play bigger than his listed height. Jones has added a three-point shot to his arsenal and could be a productive 3/4 at the right level.</p> <p><strong>2022 6-3 PG [player_tooltip player_id="870171" first="Khristian" last="Clark"] – Hollywood Stars – Southeast Bulloch</strong></p> <p>Known for his positionless style of play, [player_tooltip player_id="870171" first="Khristian" last="Clark"] really flourished at point guard over the weekend. While he by no means looks like a tradition lead ball handler, Clark uses his burly size to protect the rock and is such a strong passer that he can riffle in assists that smaller guards just don’t have enough power to attempt. Clark isn’t explosive, but he has a well-rounded game. He can easily take advantage of smaller defenders in the low post and can knock down the open three on the perimeter. Clark uses his thick frame to help rebound and can start fast breaks. He had 7 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals in a narrow loss to the Georgia Shock.</p> <p><strong>2022 6-3 SG [player_tooltip player_id="870174" first="Makaleb" last="McBride"] – Hollywood Stars – Robert Toombs</strong></p> <p>A hidden gem in the GISA, [player_tooltip player_id="870174" first="Makaleb" last="McBride"] will make a college program look smart for signing him. He’s a smooth lefty that plays with a stoic business-like demeanor. He’s graceful when attacking the basket and has a quick and easy burst. Makaleb finishes with either hand and is a threat to go coast-to-coast when he gets the ball in transition. He’s an all-around standout that can do more than just score. He’s a tough rebounder and has upside as a defender.  McBride tallied 19 points, 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block. D-II programs across the southeast should be all over him and I wouldn’t be surprised if some D-I schools started to take a look as well. Georgia has terrific talent at all levels, you just have to know where to find it – case in point [player_tooltip player_id="870174" first="Makaleb" last="McBride"].</p>
