Blogs > Burney's Bytes

Burney's Bytes will focus primarily on the local preps sports scene, but will also touch on some college and pro athletics, mostly in regards to athletes who hail and have played high school sports in Oakland County. My goal for the blog is to be conversational and anecdotal, a more relaxed and free formal take on high school athletics than you see in regular game day coverage.

Hot Hoopsters

A few names of local boys basketball studs looking sharp to start off the summer:
Kharry Fanning (Southfield) – This hard-working, athletic and wiry forward is showing that he could be a "breakout baller" for the Bluejays in 2014
Jerlyd Booker (WL Western) – Rock-steady and really good running the point for TEAM RA RA last winter, looking even better so far this offseason
John Rexrothe (FH Harrison) – The Hawks' big fella is getting more secure in his footwork and better with his back to the basket each day
Maury Diane (Birmingham DCD) – 'Jackets juggernaut at the off-guard spot just snagged a scholarship offer from U-D Mercy
Timmy Shayoka (Troy Athens) – Gutty floor general with an endless motor that will run the show for the deep, dogged and fast-improving Red Hawks, fresh off an unexpected district title back in March
Merrick Canada (Clarkston) – This spunky combo guard for the Wolves drained a buzzer-beater in OT to send C-Town to the win at the EMU team camp
Jacob Joubert (North Farmington) – Might be the most improved underclassmen cager in the OAA Red this winter…..growing into his body and his game in a big way, crafty and smart in the backcourt just like his pops "The Judge" was.
Lindsey Hunter IV (Southfield Christian) – Transforming into a genuine D1 prospect, has really fine-tuned his arsenal, just really dangerous with the ball in his hands up top or on transition
