Why not move the all-star basketball game for high school seniors to the first week of January --- just before the start of league openers?
That often signals the middle of the season. You'd have better participation. You wouldn't have to deal with spring sports. And I guarantee you would have a bigger crowd.
Because right now 30-point blowouts from one side aren't worth watching when the season is a month over.

In PrepNation, John has even more in-depth analysis of the latest results and news he's brought to you in The Herald and in his weekly videos.

I think that's a great idea John; and not just for basketball. Why not all sports, except football? A short "all-star" break would be fun.
Of course that type of change would have to come from CIF as there would have to be major modifications/exceptions to the rules regarding outside competition, mixed-school scrimmages, etc.
You should pursue it!
