Everyone needs their partner in crime. These guys are the best of the best duos in all of basketball. Here are the best dynamic duos so far!
Emmanuel Taban (Apollo 2019) & Paris Woods (Apollo 2021)
This duo is pretty special because it involved the present and the future of Apollo basketball. Taban is the now, averaging 17.8 points, 1.8 assists, and 5.8 rebounds per game. Woods is the future, averaging 12.2 points, 2.6 assists, and 4 rebounds per game. Apollo is set to make a strong state run behind the impressive play of these two young men.
Carson Towt (Gilbert 2019) & Doc Self (Gilbert 2019)
Both of these players will be in consideration for breakout player of the year. The whole Gilbert team could be up for that award as they have come seemingly out of nowhere and taken over 5A. Towt and Self are a nice point guard and big pairing. Both of these guys are smart with their play and both are willing to make the extra pass that leads to an open shot, while also having the ability to go and get a bucket on their own.
DaRon Holmes (Millennium 2021) & Justus Jackson (Millennium 2021)
The young dynamic duo of Millennium will certainly lead to main wins to come throughout the years. Holmes is averaging a ridiculous stat line (18.7 points, 2.6 assists, and 9.8 rebounds per game). Jackson has certainly been putting in work as well, averaging 14.3 points, 4.6 assists, and 2.9 rebounds per game. These two are going to be scary as they continue to progress and grow.
Cassius Carmichael (Ironwood 2019) & Dominic Gonzalez (Ironwood 2020)
The eagles are led by two veterans of the team, while they do have some nice young pieces in Bailon Black and JJ White, I think the true heart and soul of the team is in Dominic Gonzalez and Cassius Carmichael. Gonzalez is averaging 16.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game. Carmichael is averaging 15.5 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game.
Sam Goulet (Cactus Shadows 2019) & CJ Nnorom (Cactus Shadows 2019)
I like these two players a lot because they do a little bit of everything. It is always nice to have a player that does a bit of everything and Cactus Shadows has two of them, you will see how similar their stat lines are. Goulet is averaging 14.2 points, 2.8 assists, and 6.8 rebounds per game. Nnorom is averaging 14.8 points, 2.3 assists, and 2.9 rebounds per game.
