Coaches select West Tennessee All Star basketball rosters
JACKSON, Tenn. – There’s still one more high school basketball game left to be played in West Tennessee. Local coaches traveled to Liberty Tech on Wednesday to draft rosters for the annual West Tennessee All-Star game on May 30th. “You just want to get some basketball players that can play,” said Humboldt’s boys basketball coach Rob Abernathy about his draft strategy. “And make you look like a good coach.” Before the big game, players will compete in a 3-point contest and dunk contest. Coaches say they’re just as excited as players for the festivities. “This would be a great opportunity to coach some talent I haven’t seen before. We’ve heard a lot about these girls, so it’s going to be a lot of fun for me,” said Middleton girls basketball coach James Burkley. Below is a list of the rosters and coaches.
