Palo Verde High School grad Bryce Cotton completed his third year in pro basketball with an exclamation mark. He led the Perth Wildcats to the championship of the Australia’s National Basketball League, scoring 45 points in the championship-clinching game last week. Cotton also led the league in scoring at 23.1 per game. Since leaving Palo Verde, Cotton has been an all-conference guard at Providence, and spent time playing for the Phoenix Suns, Memphis Grizzlies and Utah Jazz, as well as in China and Turkey.
