Thoughts & Observations From Day 1 of the Hard In The Paint 2025 Showcase at Maynard Jackson HS

To cap off feast week in Georgia, the Hard In the Paint event at Maynard Jackson took place and showcased several top ten matchups from across all of Georgia under one roof and several division one level talented players to go along with that.  There were some intriguing matchups that led to some close finishes and even an overtime game that took us past 11 pm on Friday night.  While the temperatures were cooling down outside, the temperatures were heating up inside as the talent showed up and showed out.  To read about who played well and stood out, read below for a recap and all-showcase team from Friday.
