top 2o

I have been so lazy  blogging lately but I really cant call it overall lazy. I have been busy with about 5 other things I am working on and then yeah I have a real job that pays bills. But I know I need to do better and I am getting off to a great start on Monday with my second top 20 list for Macon high school basketball.
I will remind that if I cannot see stats on the max preps site then you are probably not getting more than one player recognized. It is just impossible to reach out to every coach in the area and after all, I am just a blogger and I don't want to be bothering folks.
Here we go
20) Kayden Lane- Covenants do all point guard is for real and could get minutes at most schools in the area. Most of Covenants basketball team from a year ago is playing somewhere else this year but Lane is keeping things together for the Rams.
20) Hey, I know I am doing two  for number 20, but so what, it is my blog, so I can do what I want. No one will complain about adding another kids name will they ? This spot goes to Windsor's Landry Rustin who is averaging 13 points a game while shooting 40% from the three line. He deserves to be here because Windsor is one of the three best teams in Macon.
19. Nathan Hunt- This young man is being asked to do a little of everything at Stratford right now with the departure of Nate Brooks, but the Eagles have continued to play hard, although not getting much as far as results go. If Stratford is going to win anymore this season, this is the guy who must get going.
18. TyRee Gilbert- He averages 18 points a game for a struggling Northeast team.
17.Darius Dunn- He averages 20 points a game for a struggling Northeast team
16.Maurice Gordon- FPD plays boring basketball but Michael Walton has them at 6-2 in the region heading into the final week. Maurice is a 10 point and 5 rebound guy and it will  be interesting to see how FPD fares in the region and state tournament.
15.Samone Reed- plays for the best team in Macon at Westside but has got lost in the shuffle as two other seniors on the team are shining. Still if this kid can get hot at the right time there is no telling how good his team can be.
14. Brandon Stewart_ One of the few bright spots for Howard as he has maintained his 13 points and 14 boards a  night average.
13.Deshon James- the Rutland post player is going 11 points a 8 rebounds a game as Rutland is having a pretty good year so far.
12.Adam Leverett- The MDS star has seen his average dip a little bit because he has three men on him all the time. Still he is averaging 18 points a game.
11.Dartavious Thompson_ 26 a game at CFCA, I know, I know, bit you cant fake 26 a game.
10.LaMontis Moore- He is Rutland's main guy at 18 ppg and has his team thinking state playoffs.
9.Armaun Smith_ The second FPD player on the list. He averages 13 ppg and his team is in a battle to win their region.
8. Trey Foster- 12 points a game playing behind the best player in the state isn't bad and it has earned him several offers, including Stetson. Westside is cruising along at 18-3 and have not missed a beat since they lost a 6'11 kid
7.JaiKez Mann- Yes he is at Windsor, but he was one of Rutlands best players a year ago. This kid can play at any level and I believe he will play a big part for Windsor as the seniors will go out with another state championship.
6.Calvin Slaughter- The Tattnall guard scored his 1000th point last week and if Tattnall is going anywhere in the playoffs he will need to get it going a little bit more than he has of late. Tattnall has the potential to make noise, but this young man must get in the mid season groove.
5. Marquise Jackson- yep another Windsor player. Why? Don't ask me that unless you have seen them play. He deserves every bit of it and so does his team. This kid has sacrificed the gaudy numbers he could be putting up and allows three guys to score in double figures. See him and the Knights play and then judge me.
4. Jimmy Marshall- Game winner at Wilco moves him up in my mind. He has been a consistent inside threat the entire year and he has to keep playing well for Tattnall to succeed. He plays like a D1 athlete, which he will be when he signs with MTSU on Wednesday.
3.Aaron Ridley- NO one else on Southwest scores in double figures so this guy has that pressure on him every night. He goes 22 and 9 on the season but the Patriots are in trouble at 3-6 in the region. Lets see what Aaron can do down the stretch.
2.Antarius McCoy- Only one Central player because I don't have stats on them but I know this guy well enough to know where he stands. He is a special kid who is the leader of a very good basketball team.
1. Khavon Moore- Ohio State visits and he goes for 53. Other best player leaves the team and they have no missed a beat. Welcome to Khavon's world, the best player maybe ever to come out of this city. If he isn't the best he is in the top 5 for sure, but please someone name someone that is more highly recruited than him from Macon . His team is 18-3, he is going 23 a night with 11 boards, yep life is good for Khavon right now.


On a personal not, I an still upset by the closing of LaBamba, my don't have to bathe to go eat a restaurant. It had the best Mexican in town and it is gone now for three week. I still drive by it and tear up. I am looking for another go to Mexican place. Any leads will be appreciated and considered.
