Fans Voting Poll: Who Is The Best 8th Grade Combo Guard In The Country? (Cast Your Vote)
The rankings are always done by the analyst and scouts but Basketball Spotlight loves to keep the fans involved. We feel the fans should have some say so in who they feel are the best. Therefore for the next few weeks we will be developing different categories for you guys to have some say. Our first category will be the Class of 2016 best point guard. We have collected the Top 5 combo guards and their highlight clips and would like you to vote on who you think is the best. Please Note: When voting from a mobile phone or Facebook scroll to the bottom of your phone screen and convert the view to website version and this will allow you to vote.
1. Eron Gordon (Indianapolis, IN)- The younger brother of NBA player Eric Gordon has become a household name in the Midwest. Like the older Gordon, Eron has strong frame and explosive moves towards the basket. He also can step back and drain the triple from deep.
2. NyRhique Smith (Asbury Park, NJ)- Smith has emerged as a Basketball Spotlight Player of the Year candidate after leading to Playaz to two final four appearances. His best outing came when he torched the competition during the Tip Off Classic as he displayed his all around arsenal.
3. Seventh Woods (Columbia, SC)- Woods has excelled since appearing at the MDC as a 10 year old guard. The last few years he won a AAU National title with the SC Ravens at 12U and then starred with the CB Spiders last season. He’s one of the most athletic guards in the country.
4. Temple Gibbs (Scotch Plains, NJ)- Gibbs has been off the to a huge start this season. He won MVP of Funsport and the Tip Off Classic. His confidence is on an all time high as he continues to lead Team Scan to multiple titles. He has big shoes to fill having two brothers at high major Division 1 schools but he seems to be handling it well.
5. Anthony Cowan (Bowie, MD)- Cowan playing off the ball a bit as helped him develop his outside shot and become a defense hound. He demonstrated clutch moments last season and during his spotlight appearances during this 2011-2012 campaign.
