Sorry guys but Mac hasn't earned anything yet, but thankfully the BDT got it right again!

I think the Graham and Central game will be a great game. Think Gate City,  Eastside and Honaker move on.  Then Eastside and Honaker will be a great match up...Graham  and Gate City would be another good game.  

Our girls are finally playing as a team. I fully expected for us to lose this one by 20+. They picked a great time to play their most complete game of the year.

GC’s Ervin and McClung and Dobyns-Bennett’s Wadsworth are the 3 local players to make it.

The Big ballers are very small.  LaMelo is probably the tallest on that team.

My son is in Vegas playing ball as well and we checked out LaMelo Ball yesterday.  I was not impressed with him  and I definitely would not call him a 5 star player.  He's good, don't get me wrong but not 5*.  My husband watched the Zion and LaMelo game.  He said that it was not a good game.  Zion would dunk and LaMelo would shoot 3s.  The place was extremely crowded.  They would not allow anyone in the doors :30 before the game.  The police were there.  We had to pick up my husband from the Cashman Center and they almost would not allow me to go in the parking lot.  They said I was not allowed to attend the game.  
We did watch Mac play.  He played well.  It's quite a sight to see him play in this type of competition.
