Jonesboro High (AR) Jr guard Keyln McBride is flying way under the radar. There are numbers to prove it.

(A Thread)

This season McBride Averaged 17.8 points per game. That& #39;s impressive by itself but wait until you see the list of former Hurricane guards who didn& #39;t do that...

Former JHS guards who DIDN& #39;T average 17.8ppg in their best season

Kahron Ross (Lehigh)
Marquise Pointer (College of Charleston)
Ben Harvey (Southern Illinois)
Marquis Eaton (Arkansas St)
Blayton Williams (Wisconsin-Green Bay)
Tony Hutson (Coffeyville CC)

All D1 level guards...

The only JHS guard to average more than Keyln McBride& #39;s 17.8ppg is current Arkansas Razorback guard Desi Sills who averaged 19.8ppg his senior year at Jonesboro.

There& #39;s more...

Due to injury McBride& #39;s junior season was cut to 21 games which he played through pain.

In less than 2 seasons Keyln has rained in 141 3 pointers at a 45% clip. Since 2013 Desi Sills is by far the closest player to McBride in made 3s. Desi made 131 in 3 full seasons...

Maybe the most impressive number for McBride this season was his 92% clip from the Free Throw Line. McBride was 49% 2PT, 40% 3PT, and 92% FT. Pretty impressive.

I& #39;m not claiming Keyln McBride is better or worse than any of the elite guards that @coachwesswift has been able put on the floor at Jonesboro. I am claiming this kid is for real and deserves more recognition. Add him to the ever growing list of D1 guards to come out of JHS!
