@daparra19 @Lamelrobinson11 We saw Lamel throughout his career and thought the world of him since his freshman season. We didn’t have any say in who’s up for this award.

@KCStarHS @Lamelrobinson11 was 3x 1st team all state big class in Missouri, conference and district player of the year 2 years in a row, scored 2000 career points, and a McDonald’s all American nominee. But ok.

@TJ_NoZer0Days @wardlow04 The Star doesn't have any say in the finalists. It's determined by the Greater Kansas City Basketball Coaches Association.
