I would think that Robert Parish would be in that number. Very few even know who Greg Procell is or was. I also think the Knicks had a good center that was from La.

From what I've heard, he could get it. And played with one of the all-time great names: Tootsie Roll Meshel.

I just read where Procell scored 6,702 points in high school. A coach called the Ebarb offense "Run and Shoot, Holler and Foller."

Scales was from Dallas.

Greg Procell shot almost entirely from behind the three point line, and I don't think there was even a three point line in those days. Scored over 100 in one game as I recall. I saw him play a couple of times. Probably the best pure shooter I ever saw, and the competition was pretty good, mostly Sabine Parish schools like Florein, Negreet, Zwolle, Pleasant Hill etc. Always produced the Class C and sometimes Class B state champions. Best player, probably not. Shooter, it would be hard to find one better.

Would have to say Anthony Aucoin- Woodlawn BR 91-94. Had close to 3700 points for his career. Shut down Randy Livingston while putting up close to 30 on him and also put up 48 on Lester Earl among anybody else he went up against. The best ive seen

Chris Duhon was much better than Torris during that era
