Atlanta Select Player of the Week is Marcus Reid, a member of the 9U Boys Silver team. Marcus is seven years old and because of his basketball IQ and athleticism he earned a starting role at the shooting guard position with the 9u team during the Duluth Hoopfest tournament. Marcus played his position very well on offense and defense. His contribution was especially valuable on defense where he harassed the opposing point guards by trapping at mid court. Marcus showed skill and lots of courage by creating turnovers and getting involved in tying up or retrieving numerous loose balls. Whenever there was a struggle for a loose ball, Marcus was on the floor in the mix. Marcus made you proud by demonstrating the Atlanta Select style of play involving confident, aggressive and relentless pursuit during the game. Because of Marcus' contribution to the team effort, the 9U Silver team earned the second place trophy in the Duluth Hoopfest tournament. The Atlanta Select is extremely proud of Marcus and his teammates for their outstanding play and by adding to the 2008 Trophy Count.
