<h2>West Georgia </h2> 1. 6-4 SG [player_tooltip player_id="869596" first="Jaylin" last="Sellers"] – Spencer Electrically smooth athlete. A bolt of lightning in transition with his quickness and ability to finish above the rim. Lefty creates off the dribble and can knock down the three and mid-range. Earns steals by winning 50/50 balls. Right hand needs some refinement. Troy, Catawba and Columbus State have all offered. 2. 6-6 W [player_tooltip player_id="806725" first="Jaylen" last="Jackson"] – Douglas County Dynamic next-level athlete. High-flyer that uses his athleticism to soar over defenses. Long arms and explosiveness help him attack the glass for offensive rebounds. Will need to improve his three-point shot (28-112; 25%), but has all the tools to become a strong player at the right level. Received his first D-I offer from North Carolina A&T on May 12. Averaged 16.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1 steal per game. 3. 6-4 PF [player_tooltip player_id="869594" first="Omarion" last="Smith"] – Douglas County Georgia’s best pound-for-pound shot blocker the past three seasons. Game-changing rim protector with outstanding instincts and terrific rebounding motor. Averaged 10.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1 steal and 5.6 blocks. Has gotten a little more comfortable attacking off the dribble but still needs a jump shot and post moves for his offense to catch up to his superior defense. 4. 6-5 W [player_tooltip player_id="948589" first="Travis" last="Harper"] – St. Anne-Pacelli One of the hotter prospects in Georgia currently, recently receiving offers from Tennessee State and Columbus State. Long, lanky swingman with big bounce. Jump shooter that gets good lift when firing from deep (33-111; 30%) and mid-range. Improving his strength and ball handling will help improve his game when his shot isn’t falling. Put up 18.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.7 steals per game. 5. 6-5 W [player_tooltip player_id="938921" first="KJ" last="Doucet"] – Chapel Hill Big strong forward that can play either position, but spends most of his time on the wing. Has the strength to rebound in traffic and post up smaller defenders. Does a nice job using his body to shield away shot blockers when getting to the basket. Averaged 15.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals. 6. 6-5 W [player_tooltip player_id="948585" first="Kervens" last="Yacinthe"] – Paulding County Enjoyed a breakout season, averaging 21.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.6 steals. Scored 53 points in a game. Long wing that gets downhill. Wiry frame that can absorb contact when getting to the hoop. Lefty is a streaky three-point shooter (29-101; 29%). 7. 6-3 SG [player_tooltip player_id="869629" first="Kristian" last="Ford"] – East Paulding Upped his scoring average from 4.3 points to 16.1 points and could see it rise to over 20 points per game his senior season. Tacked on 5.9 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2 steals per game. At his best when he’s dialed in with his jumper. Can catch fire from deep (54-135; 40%) but also has a smooth mid-range pull-up as well. Ball handling has improved but can still get better. 8. 6-0 G Jaques Holt – Spencer Quick athletic guard that pushes the tempo. Can changes speeds quickly and has a compact low to the ground crossover that freezes defenders. 9. 6-5 PF [player_tooltip player_id="948590" first="Ian" last="Mathews"] – St. Anne-Pacelli Throwback grinder underneath the basket. Thick bulldozer scores with his back to the basket but also has surprisingly nimble feet and can push the ball in transition. Uses his body to carve out space inside and rebound with soft hands. Has a slow set shot on the perimeter but can hit when left open (35-106; 3PT 33%). Overall quite skilled for his size. 10. 6-0 CG Gray Voltz – Columbus Three-point shooter that averaged 17.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 3.2 steals. Opportunistic driver that has good body control when taking it to the basket. Gets into the passing lanes often.
