Live @ The Super 80: Matthew Butler Memphis East 2013

Image
Matt Butler is by far one of the most impressive prospects at the Super 80 Fall Showcase. While Butler may not be the flashiest player or have the sexiest game, he kills you with good ole' fashion fundalmentals. Butler has one of the sweetest strokes from beyond the stripe that I've ever seen on the high school level. Butler also impressed with his ability to free himself up by using sceens and picks. Once he catches the rock the battle is over because he's going to find a way to score.

Live @ The Super 80: Andre Applewhite Memphis Central 2012

Andre Applewhite's, 6'4" SG Memphis Central 2012, time has come. After being the guy along side Top 20 nationally ranked big man, Jarnell Stokes for three years, Applewhite will now have to lead a young group of Central Warriors as the experienced vet. From everything that I wittness during the Super 80, I think he can deliver. Dre is a defensive nightmare because of his length, strong plus active hands, and quick feet. Over the Summer, Applewhite put the work in and became more consistant with his jumper and worked on his moves off the bounce. In Andre's eyes the Central Basketball Warriors aren't dead yet. Be on the look-out.
