<span style="font-weight: 400;">Just like in the city of Memphis, some of the top girl’s basketball players in the Nashville city limits are sidelined due to the pandemic. These student-athletes are doing everything they can to stay in shape as they wait for the go-ahead to tip-off. From training with various trainers such as All-Around Game, Skill Wing, Hardwood Prospects, Basketball Development Academy, and many others, these players are refining their skills until they are given the green light.</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Over the past few years, Metro Nashville has seen a jolt in girls’ basketball talent. Schools such as Hillsboro, East Nashville, Maplewood, Cane Ridge, and Pearl-Cohn, have seen talent throughout the years.
