Vote: Who is the North Suncoast Boys Basketball Player of the Week (11/27/2023)?
The Florida High School Boys Basketball season has begun and we begin our Player of the Week polls for areas all around the state. Teams started off the regular season with some great individual performances.
As such, we have nine athletes nominated this week for the SBLive’s North Suncoast Florida high school boys basketball player of the week award from November 20-25, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the top athlete selected. Voting will conclude on Sunday, December 3rd at 11:59 p.m. The winner will be announced in next week's poll.
Editor’s note: Our corresponding poll is intended to be fun, and we do not set limits on how many times a fan can vote during the competition. This poll is specifically for fans to vote on the players that have been nominated and in no way discredits any other player that may not be mentioned in our poll.
Here are the nominations:
Preston Linville, G, Wiregrass Ranch: The senior guard opened up the regular season with a strong performance in the Bulls’ 70-65 win over East Lake, scoring a game-high 24 points.
