Ace Bailey has shown no signs of a letdown as the five-star forward<\/p>\n

The win from McEachern (Powder Springs, Georgia) sees them into the AAAAAAA state title game in Georgia. The hard-fought 63-56 win over Wheeler (Marietta, Georgia) was another vintage performance from Bailey. The Rutgers basketball<\/a> product finished with 32 points and 15 rebounds.<\/p>\n

Last week, Bailey was named the No. 1 player in the nation by USA TODAY High School Sports<\/a>. The Georgia forward earned the top spot because of his unquestioned athleticism coupled with an inside\/outside game that is polished and impressive.<\/p>\n

On Saturday in the state playoffs, Bailey popped off several shots that showed his range. He also did very well in getting to the rim.<\/p>\n
