The names at the top remain the same – for now. O.J. Mayo, the undisputed heaviest hitter, in what looks to be a solid – and possibly spectacular – 2007 group sits atop our rankings. He’s then followed by Michael Beasley a forward out of Washington, D.C., and Bill Walker, Mayo’s high school and traveling team running mate.
Kevin Love, a power forward, reps the West Coast in our Top 5, pursued closely by Chi-Town’s sophomore sensation, Derrick Rose.
The rest of the list is going to change quite a bit over the next two months. There will be some movers and shakers so keep an early eye on a guy like Austin Freeman. The wing posted big numbers at the Spring Fling to kick off the year and everyone should be watching for a similar explosion in the month of April. Freeman checks in at No. 26 but he could be coming on fast!
