25-point-per-game scorer is pound-for-pound the best scorer in Georgia. Accurate three-point shooter and crafty shot maker from the mid-range. Has transformed into a playmaker that makes teammates better.
2. 2022 6-8 PF Jared Russo Jared Russo 6'8" | PF River Ridge | 2022 State GA – River Ridge
Skilled post that is returning from a broken arm. Blocks shots, scores efficiently around the basket and rebounds in traffic. Can knock down the open three. Advanced back-to-the-basket offensive arsenal. Game will continue to elevate as he gets stronger and fills into his frame.
3. 2021 6-5 W Logan Turner Logan Turner 6'5" | SG Centennial | 2021 State GA – Centennial
Athletic wing that is both explosive and graceful when attacking the basket. Scores from all three levels. Can shake off defenders with creative moves. Averaged 18.1 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.4 steals.
4. 2021 6-4 G Kyle Duncan Kyle Duncan 6'4" | CG Centennial | 2021 State GA – Centennial
High academic big guard does a little bit of everything. Averaged 13.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.2 blocks. Has length and a quick first step. Nice mid-range game. Guards multiple positions on defense.
5. 2021 6-3 CG Steven Lyles – Johns Creek
Strong bouncy guard that can play either on or off the ball. Makes plays defensively with his make up speed and leaping ability. Helps out on the glass. Hits the three when feet are set. Tough to stop as a driver. Should see an increased role in the offense.
