2022 Terrance Jacobs (Bartlett)
Fantastic scoring and ball-handling for Terrence. The senior is unsigned, but his recruiting will experience an immediate lift after that State Tournament display. His three-pionter to send the semifinal to overtime was at massive a shot as he hit in his entire career.

In the fourth quarter, likely too late to change the game, Jarred missed a three-pointer and then hunted an errant offensive rebound. He reached almost a foot above his peers and made the and-1 count. Hall made two critical technical free throws and buried an enormous three-pointer seconds later. Hall has long showcased the potential to be an elite player, but historically, he had stretches where he appeared too passive for a superstar. This patch of production proved what he and all of his supporters always believed. He is a special talent with the perfect basketball body for future stardom.

What a fantastic week for Brady. The undersized guard scored consistently against bigger guards and even helping forwards. The Stump future remains difficult to to project, but the scoring is undeniable.

The elite rebounder, Browder typically dominated lesser teams throughout DB’s magical season, but Friday in the semifinal battle against the state’s most athletic team Bartlett Browder fit right into the flow and the pacing. He showed that he can play with an elegance that is unique to his size and strength. The outside shooting is a marketable skill that Browder did not really show off in that specific game.

Dabbs was a volume scorer in both of Greeneville’s first two games of the week. He is quicker than expected and expanded the floor with his outside shooting.

Rashad is a player that earned a lofty reputation earlier in the season, but this state tournament suggests he is poised for a breakout summer AAU run. Good size. Nimble. Springy and plays with his hands high on defense.
