2021 PG J.P. Pegues – Hillsboro
Crafty. Quick. Good height for the position. Pegues started his freshman season and grew into this prominent role he now owns. Ryan Wilcox (Hillsboro ’20) is another daunting star for Franklin to consider in their prep. Pegues will be a handful for the Franklin zone, as he penetrates better than most.
2021 PG Reed Kemp – Franklin
Earned District MVP. Special vision. Capable of scoring 30 even in a critical game. Kemp’s shooting touch is better than average, but his responsibility to the team includes much more than scoring. Franklin features a powerful frontline. Their draw is very, very challenging with Hillsboro and either McGavock or rival Brentwood waiting IF the Rebels win. Kemp’s leadership and brilliance will be requested constantly throughout this regional tournament.
2020 W Malique White – Hunters Lane
High-flying wing for Hunters Lane. White is a smooth shooter with uncommon strength. His opponent is daunting. Dickson County is an impressive 23-7 with only a single loss outside their district (M.B.A.). They are very difficult to beat in your first time playing them. Malique will need to be great.
2020 PG Marvin Hughes – McGavock
Brilliant mind. Physically imposing. Winner. Unafraid of the moment. Handles are great. Ability to finish in the lane is elite. Hughes is well known throughout the state. Still considering college options, but he is a D1 player to me. VMI dropped in to evaluate him earlier this winter. He has the test/grades to be an High-Academic recruit on top of his 2,000+ career points.
JP Pegues 2021 Hillsboro CG put on a great performance yesterday scoring 25pts (including 5 made 3pt shots and dunk) in the makeup game against Overton💪🏾💪🏾

2022 Destin Wade – North Summit
A dual-sport star. Wade and his brother are both likely to graduate with D1 football and D1 basketball offers. Wade was stronger than most local bigs last year. The growth of his game continues unabated. Wade is an inside-outside threat. Both strong and silky with a football player’s mental and physical toughness.

2021 G John Windley – Brentwood
Creative. Great height for the position. Windley’s older brother is a college basketball player and John is certain to get that same opportunity. Windley is a quality rebounder from the guard position.
