The winners will be honored in a one-hour virtual show on Sunday at 6 p.m. on VYPE Houston's website and Twitter account and on the VYPE Texas Facebook page! It will be an event to get dressed up for and to tune in to as it will be an evening full of special moments!
Let us get it started! Here are the finalists for Public School Basketball Player of the Year!
PLAYER OF THE YEAR NOMINEE -- Rubin Jones, Yates
The North Texas-signee was the straw that stirred the drink to Yates' success. He ran an offense that was historic.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR NOMINEE -- Tramon Mark, Dickinson
Long, rangy, two-way player -- Tramon Mark could do it all. UH got good one as he showed leadership, scoring and defensive ability that made him the Guy V. Lewis Player of the Year.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR NOMINEE -- LJ Cryer, Morton Ranch
Baylor-bound LJ Cryer can fill it up with the best of them. He put Morton Ranch on the state map, making the Mavs one of the top headliners in the Lone Star State.

AWARD SZN: 2020 VYPE Houston Public School Boys Basketball All-VYPE Team
Apr 01, 2020
And thud...
The 2019-20 basketball season ended in an off-the-backboard brick as the COVID-19 virus put an end to the state tournament.
Houston had four teams advance to state and VYPE will grant all four teams a share of the Team of the Year Award. Each had a great story line.
Dickinson hadn't been to state in 65 years and was hitting on all cylinders entering Final Four weekend. 65 years!!!!
Hightower was led by super-soph Bryce Griggs and company, looking to make school history if they could have reached the state finals. Three Hurricane teams made the Final Four before this year's group but hasn't won a game at state in school history.
Yates was poised for their fifth state title in 11 years under the direction of coach Greg Wise. They set the consecutive record for scoring 100-points in a game, breaking their own record a decade ago.
That leaves Stafford. Coach David Montano had the Spartans two games away from their first title since 1992. Stafford was off the grid in the preseason, sneaking up on everyone en route to state.
Here are the All-VYPE teams and superlatives.
