Actually Ferg might not be the best scorer in the state either. There's a kid in nky by the name of Blake Bryan who's a junior at Villa Madonna, that is currently averaging 31 ppg. He also plays on a not so good team which means he is seeing double and triple teams every night. Thought you might be interested in seeing his stats:

 

241-570 42% FG

56-183 31% 3pt FG

710 points through 23 games.

 

Here are the numbers he's put up this year:

 

37 pts v Newport

38 pts v Lloyd

30 pts v Calvary Christian

27 pts v Silver Grove

33 pts v St. Henry

24 pts v Newcath

26 pts v Oldham County

35 pts v Seneca (top 20 team)

28 pts v Silver Grove

35 pts v Newport

37 pts v Dixie Heights

35 pts v St. Bernard

48 pts v Bellevue

15 pts v Beechwood

30 pts v Dayton

28 pts v Ludlow

30 pts v Heritage

25 pts v Ludlow

19 pts v Calvary Christian

45 pts v Louisville Collegiate

26 pts v Silver Grove

20 pts v Ludlow

39 pts v Bellevue

 

BTW....this kid is only 5'9 putting up numbers like that. Here's a nice article about him. This is also only his second year of varsity ball, I believe:

Wow...24 shots a game. He certainly is not bashful.

I would say he is the only person on the team taking any shots?? What is his percentage?

Now I see the percentage, your right Shutitdown, looks like he's not afraid to shoot it!

Wow...24 shots a game. He certainly is not bashful.

 

753/23 = 32.7 shots per game if I have it right. You are right...probably has to ice his elbow after games. :lol:

Wow, he is averaging 32 shots per game. I wonder how that ranks? That is the challenge with using statistics to gauge players....too many variables: team makeup, offensive style, game situations (for a good team, often the good players sit out the latter part of games); level of competition; and whether the team run plays to set up a shooter or not.

The team he plays on isn't exactly one of the better ones in NKY, hence him having to take a lot of shots. He has a very good all around game though:

 

31 ppg

6 rpg (Remember he's only 5'9)

4 apg

2 spg

1 bpg

 

Not bad if you ask me. IMO he's the best scorer in the state. Only weakness is his free throw shooting:

 

172-291 59.1% FT

753/23 = 32.7 shots per game if I have it right. You are right...probably has to ice his elbow after games. :lol:

 

33 shots in one game? Good grief!

Here's a link to his stats. The last two games they played aren't posted on there yet:

A 5'9 point guard that takes 33 shots a game.

I think the 3 FG's are part of the total FG's which would be 24 shots per game. Regardless 24 or 33 shots a game I think we have found the best "Shooter" in the state!

I agree. I was thinking the 3pt FG were included with the FG as well, which would mean he only takes 24 shots a game.

 

Either way, I think he could very well be considered the best shooter and scorer in the state. His stats pretty impressive. He's been held under 20 points just twice this year.

I'll put my vote in for Ferguson.

FYI I never said Ferg was best scorer either!!!!!!

 

B. Bryan is the man!!! He is the King......you can sleep tonight now!!!!!!!

 

BTW Ferg averages 16 shots a game, and gets 25 points!! That's a shooting index of 1.5! Give him those other 8 shots and he would average about 35!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with an earlier poster that its pretty hard to argue against one of the top scorers in the history of KHSAA basketball.
