Georgia’s Early Season Bucket Getters

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we near the end of the first third of the basketball season, here are some of the top individual scoring performances so far. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["671764"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936ddcf5ef54"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Acree, one of the best Juniors in the state and the country, is currently averaging 30.2 points per game and 12.7 rebounds per game for the Lady Tornadoes. She went off in a game against Terrell County earlier in the year scoring 44 points. Acree can score inside and out and at six foot tall is a matchup nightmare against most teams. Acree is an exceptional rebounder on the offense end leading to easy second chance points. Acree is a very capable shooter from three point range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["582143"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936ddcf5efc7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gainey is one of the top available senior guards in the state. She showed that with two great performances against very solid competition. Gainey recently had one of the best games of the season by anyone scoring 40 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and grabbing 10 steals for Seckinger against Roswell. Against Milton, a perennial power in Georgia, Gainey scored 29 points and had 7 steals. Gainey is an elite athlete who uses her quickness and anticipation to jump in passing lanes and create steals as well as anyone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["541429"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936ddcf5f016"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rudolph, who will continue her career at Kennesaw State, is on a mission to get Grayson back to the AAAAAA State championship game for a third year in a row. The senior is coming off a 28 point game in an overtime win against top ten ranked Luella. Earlier this season Rudolph scored 38 points against Central Macon and 28 points against Dutchtown. The senior can put the ball in the basket in a lot of ways. She uses her length well slashing and finishing at the basket and can also hurt teams from beyond the arc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["476481"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936ddcf5f05f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='476481' first='Callan' last='Ledford'] has started her senior year strong for Murray County putting up some big scoring numbers early this season. Against rival North Murray, Ledford finished the game with 30 points and 12 steals. Ledford plays hard on both ends of the court and does a job turning defense into offense. Ledford also had a strong scoring effort against Signal Mountain scoring 27 points for the Indians.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["821842"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936ddcf5f0a8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aparicio has to be one the biggest stock risers in Georgia so far this season. She is averaging 19.3 points per game on 42% shooting according to MaxPreps along with 5.8 rebounds and 5 assists leading her Etowah team to a perfect 9-0 record. Aparicio has stepped up when her team needed her most scoring 30 points against Peachtree Ridge earlier in the season and scoring 31 points in her last game against Cambridge. She is a strong guard who uses her body well attacking the basket and posting up on the block. She is a very good ball handler who will make teams pay if left open on the perimeter as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["991147"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6936e7be9047f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In a much-anticipated freshman season for [player_tooltip player_id='991147' first='Ella' last='David'], the young guard has lived up to the hype. David delivered big against Clarke Central scoring 27 points with 5 steals, 3 assists, and 4 rebounds. She followed that up with another impressive showing scoring 31 points in Oconee county's win over Eastside. David still has a lot of upside, but is producing at a very high level already. She is an outstanding shooter from deep and is very crafty dribbling the ball and finishing in traffic in the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
