Senior ♦ Basketball
The 6-foot-5 guard became the first career 1,000-point scorer in Burton Bentley history during holiday break with a 25-point performance in his team’s 71-24 win over Burton Atherton on Dec. 27. Bentley is 6-4 and on a four-game winning streak heading into Friday’s game against Flint Hamady.
McFadden has been a high-volume scorer for Bentley for multiple seasons and was averaging 26 points, 10 rebounds and three assists per game heading into this week. He earned all-area honorable mention from the Flint Journal last season and is considering several opportunities to continue playing basketball at the collegiate level.
