Up 17 spots to #77. He is now #76 on 247 composite

A stretch four is what this program has needed for so long.

Banks jumped center to open the game; tipped it to a teammate; raced to the bucket; took a lob pass and slammed it home.  Game. Over.  Final score Fayette County (12-8) over North Clayton (0-18) 102-53.  Playing no more than 20 minutes he scored 21 pts. on 9-14 FG; 0-3 on 3s; 3-3 FT; 5 reb; 4 asst; 3 stl; 2 blk; 0 TO.  There was no running clock but they did limit the 4th Q to 6 minutes.

Senior night for Banks as Fayette County's (17-8) regular season ends with a 73-65 win over Riverdale (7-15).  Banks finished with 24p  16r  3a  3stl  2blk.  Game was butt ugly as neither team played particularly well.  Fast paced and helter skelter with lots of sloppy turnovers by both teams.

Final | Rd. 1 Boys Region 5-AAAA Tournament Fayette County 97 routed North Clayton 41.

Region 5 AAAA semifinal game Faytette County defeated Luella 71-49.  Banks 18p  12r  5b.   Championship game 6:00 on Saturday against the winner of McDonough - Hampton.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Fayette County won its Region 5 AAAA championship game 68-60 over McDonough.  Banks 21p  12r

Both teams and the officials all  have to exit the gym floor at the same point.  Immediately after the game was over, the Fayette team headed for its locker room.  No wild mid-court celebration, they just all moved towards the exit.  Except for 1 wise a$$ who hung back and kept mouthing off at the McDonough bench.  So, a couple of McD players start moving at him ahead of the McD team who is now all also headed to that same exit where the Fayette team has congregated.  Fortunately, cooler heads stepped in and nothing of consequence happened but there certainly was the potential for it to get ugly and all because of 1 flaming idiot.

How is Banks game coming along? It’s good to see he is putting up big numbers but how is his footwork in the paint? How is is jumpshot/midrange game? Can he beat players off the dribble and get to the hoop?

Banks’ issue is that among the recruits/commits he’s the least well-coached. Easily. Where it’s really glaring is with his defensive fundamentals, which are just bad. He struggles to maintain ball awareness and his execution of rudimentary ball/you/man stuff is not good. He’s also got enough inconsistency in his shot mechanics that he’s very streaky from range. And his effort comes and goes a little bit. BUT, he’s a really talented kid. Good athlete. Good frame. Can really run. He’s got some post fundamentals in place. He’s got a jump hook. He’s got a drop step. He can face up and create space. He can handle in the open court and take it end to end. He’s a pretty good passer off the dribble. He’s got really good hands and he’s a good rebounder on both ends. And he plays easily through contact. His issues are just developmental. He doesn’t have a trait or skill like Trayce’s jumper where you know it’s never gonna come. He’s gonna be a good player, possibly really good, but he’ll only play as early as his D will allow.

Do you think a juwan type trajectory could be a fair comp?
