ALL-STATE BOYS BASKETBALL: Good Hope's Malin garners 2nd-team status; Addison's Wilkins named honorable mention
Mar. 28—Good Hope's Tanner Malin earned a second-team spot in Class 4A when the Alabama Sports Writers Association announced its 2020-21 All-State boys basketball teams on Sunday.
Addison's Logan Wilkins, meanwhile, was named an honorable mention in 2A.
The All-State basketball teams are decided by the ASWA's prep committee, which chooses from a list of tremendous athletes spanning seven classifications across the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA). The Alabama Independent School Association (AISA) is also part of the selection process.
Players of the Year will be announced April 3 (girls) and April 4 (boys).
The Super 5 teams will be released April 8, and Miss Basketball (April 10) and Mr. Basketball (April 11) announcements will follow shortly afterward.

Name: Tanner Malin
School: Good Hope
Year: Junior
Class: Class 4A
All-State Status: Second Team
Highlights: Averaged 19.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game ... Had 107 steals and six blocks ... All-Area ... All-County ... The Times' All-Area Player of the Year ... Led team in scoring in 22 of 31 games.
Coach Speak: "When your best players set the tone as your team's hardest workers, it's huge for your program. Cole Maddox the past few years and now Tanner this year are great examples of that. Tanner is absolutely obsessed with becoming the best he can be, and he never misses an opportunity to get better. I'm extremely proud of Tanner, and I'm thankful that he sets an example for our young guys to look at and see what it takes to be great. I also love the fact that he knows he can be even better and is already hard at work preparing for his football and basketball seasons next year. Guys like Tanner make coaching fun." — Good Hope's Drew Adams

Name: Logan Wilkins
School: Addison

Coach Speak: "Logan was a joy to coach this past year. We played a brutal schedule, and he battled and battled night after night. All-time leading scorer here at Addison and first boy to sign a basketball scholarship here at the school — and he earned it all. He's been a consistent gym rat, he's worked for everything he's gotten, and he's nowhere near cracking his potential. The sky is truly the limit for him." — Addison's Ben Mastin
