Jayden Smith Leads the Way as Newnan Elite Top Wood Elite Select, 61-51 Jayden Smith claimed his first career Player of the Game honor at the RYZE Hoops Warm Up, and Newnan Elite came out ahead of Wood Elite Select 61-51 on the strength of a balanced scoring effort.

The top 4 finishers were separated by just 6 points, a spread that built the comfortable margin.
