StreetTalk_AisahTurner_hdr This past season as a sophomore this young lady helped her high school team reach the Class 4A Final 4 and did it in impressive fashion showing a lot of poise and court savvy for such a young player.
Having seen her play this summer I can tell you that she has taken her game to another level and the college recruiters are starting to swarm like bees on honey. Heading into her junior year at Westlake H.S., 4SHOT Hoops has Aisha Turner listed as one of the top points guards in the state of Georgia.
