Nothing to see here, just the Kobe to @Abracamonte21 connection in the MaxPreps Top 10 Plays of the Week nationwide! @TATrojanSports @ThorntonAcademy #StateChamps #Fitzy.
The @GonzagaSports hail mary miracle had to be our No. 1 play of the week. 👀. But, what if we told you it almost dropped out of our Top 3?. Yeah, that's how good these MaxPreps Top 10 Plays of the Week are 🔥
