Performance of the Week: Mount Clemens' Nevaeh Williams
January 14, 2022
Nevaeh Williams ♦ Mount Clemens
Basketball ♦ Senior
A media report her sophomore season referred to Williams as the “best player that most high school hoops fans have never heard of,” but the part about being unknown has changed significantly this season and especially over the last week. On Jan. 7, Williams scored 60 points in a win over Arts & Technology Academy of Pontiac – tying the fourth-highest single-game total in state girls basketball history – and she followed up with 42 points in a 58-38 win Tuesday against Warren Michigan Collegiate.
The senior point guard has arguably been unmatched in filling stat sheets this winter. She also had seven rebounds against ATAP, and added eight rebounds and 10 steals against Michigan Collegiate. She went over 1,000 career points during a Dec. 14 win over Detroit Pershing, tallying a quadruple double with 20 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists and 11 steals, and nearly matched it the next night in a win over Detroit Lincoln-King Academy with 35 points, 10 steals, nine rebounds and seven assists. Earlier in December she put up 44 points in a victory over Southfield Bradford, and she set a school record with 14 steals against Melvindale Academy of Business & Technology also during the season’s first weeks.

Performance of the Week: West Bloomfield's Indya Davis
February 10, 2023
Indya Davis ♦ West Bloomfield
Junior ♦ Basketball
Davis scored a game-high 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds as West Bloomfield defeated Detroit Edison 59-49 in a matchup of last season’s Division 1 and Division 2 champions, respectively. The Lakers also had defeated Edison during the 2021-22 regular season, when they became the first in-state opponent to defeat the Pioneers since January 2018. This winter, Davis is averaging 16.1 points – connecting on 51 percent of her shots from the floor – with 9.4 rebounds and 2.9 steals per game.
A 5-foot-9 guard, Davis was the leading scorer in both the Semifinal win over Rockford and the championship game victory over Hartland last year at the Breslin Center. West Bloomfield is 16-2 overall this season and has clinched a share of the Oakland Activities Association Red championship, and among a talented cast Davis continues to team with twin sister Summer, the Lakers’ leading scorer at 19.6 ppg who like Indya is considered among the state’s elite players. They’ll continue to team up after high school as well, having committed to sign with Michigan State.
