Jordan Nelson (2011; SG; Union Grove H.S.).

Jordan Nelson (2011; 6' 3"; SG; Union Grove) is having a strong senior season for Union Grove High School. The wiry and highly athletic wing guard is a player with  excellent upside potential whose best basketball is definitely ahead of him. Nelson arrived on the radar of several college programs this past summer while playing for the F.C.I. Warriors at the AAU Super Showcase in Orlando. He also enjoyed a good showing on the Fall Camp Circuit.

Here is some highlight footage of Jordan:

Alex Anderson hits game winner; scores 26 in Deep South victory

Alex Anderson (Class of 2011)

McIntosh High's Alex Anderson capped his game-high 26-point night with a 3-pointer with 4 seconds remaining to lift the Chiefs to a 68-66 victory Tuesday afternoon in the Deep South Classic played at Brookwood High.

Anderson (6' 2, CG, 2011) has had a very good senior season thus far, where he is averaging close to 20 PPG. Prior to Christmas, he has named to the All-Tournament team at the Kell Longhorn Classic. The 6' 2 senior would be a good pickup for a college program looking for a physically strong guard who can knock down the outside jumper as well as play excellent agressive on ball defense.

Fayette's Larry Erves Off to Strong Start

Fayette County High School Senior Larry Erves (6' 5, SG, 2011) has gotten off to a hot start for the Tigers. He is averaging 19 points on 51 percent shooting and an 82-percent mark at the foul line thus far, helping  the Fifth-ranked Tigers to a 5-1 start. Erves is a high flying and aggressive player who loves to attack the rim with intensity.
