Region 8-7A
1. 2022 6-6 F RJ Godfrey RJ Godfrey 6'7" | PF North Gwinnett | 2022 State #198 Nation GA – North Gwinnett
Athletic forward that lives above the rim. Dunks everything up close. Excels as a rebounder and rim protector. Has shown the ability to hit the open three and put the ball on the floor to create his own offense from time to time. HIGHLIGHTS
2. 2021 6-9 SF Wyatt Fricks – Mountain View
Great size for swingman. Deceptively athletic. Slender frame but plays with functional strength. Dangerous three-point shooter. Can rise over smaller defenders. Finishes above the rim when he gets inside. Blocks shots. Averaged 12 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in breakout season.

Powerful forward with a workhorse mentality in the paint. Rebounds in traffic. Offensive game has expanded. Capable three-point shooter and mid-range threat. Still can play bully ball on the block. Posted 12.4 points and 8.2 rebounds. HIGHLIGHTS
4. 2021 6-3 CG Brendan Rigsbee Brendan Rigsbee 6'2" | CG North Gwinnett | 2021 State GA – North Gwinnett
Athletic left-handed two-guard. Can both slash and hit the three at an efficient rate. Makes difficult finishes look routine. Has to be located on backdoor lobs. Averaged 11 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists. HIGHLIGHTS
