ATLANTA – Zay Green now has bragging rights over future Lady Vol basketball teammates Amira Collins and Jazmine Massengill. The Tennessee signee helped her West team to an 82-79 victory over the East on Wednesday night in the McDonald’s All American Game at Philips Arena.

Green, a 6-0 guard from Duncanville, Texas (Duncanville H.S.), started for the West squad and played 17 minutes. She finished with six points on 3-of-8 shooting and tallied four steals, three assists and a rebound.

Massengill, a 6-0 point guard from Chattanooga (Hamilton Heights Christian Academy), and Collins, a 6-3 forward from Waldorf, Md. (Paul VI Catholic H.S., Fairfax, Va.), came off the bench for the East.

Massengill contributed four points on 2-of-5 shooting, adding two rebounds, a block and an assist in 17 minutes. Collins, meanwhile, connected on one of three field goal attempts and hit a free throw to finish with three points in 13 minutes. She also added three rebounds and a steal.

The trio has another all-star game coming up. They will head to Brooklyn, N.Y., on April 8, where they are scheduled to play in the Jordan Brand Classic at the Barclays Center.
