Fellow Wolfpack signee Zamareya Jones of North Pitt, among finalists for the statewide “Ms. Basketball title,” joins a handful of girls who won’t play in their All-Star Game, which starts the evening at 6:30 p.m. inside Novant Health Fieldhouse.
Santana Lynch of Lake Norman and Chambers’ Maurio Hanson are among four players off the boys’ West All-Star team.
Molly Burns, a recent star at Ardrey Kell who’s continuing her basketball career at USC Aiken, is the only player from the area who will play for the girls’ West team.
Jeremiah Howard of Concord has been added to the boys’ West team, where he joins Chase and Carson Daniel of Central Cabarrus, along with Jalen Chambers of Mooresville.
