Fab Five photos

With the sectional basketball playoffs in girls and boys competition underway, this week’s Fab Five spread features photos from Hopkins’ 84-65 boys victory over Minnetonka.

The photos include a 1985 Minnesota Mr. Basketball recipient officiating the C-squad game (Brett McNeal), a guard who led Hopkins with 28 points (Anthony Smith), his back court mate who added 18 (Jayden Moore), Minnetonka’s leading scorer with 16 points (Isa El-Amin), and a teammate whose contributions go beyond scoring (Duke Richardson).
