Editor's Note: These rankings do no include 6'8 Jr Jarred Vanderbilt from Houston (Victory Prep) TX, 6'8 Omari Spellman from Oakdale (St Thomas More) CT, and 6'11 Soph Marvin Bagley from Tempe (Corona del Sol) AZ. Vanderbilt was the leading rebounder in the tournament after the second day with 14.0 rpg, but then was sidelined with a head injury and we never got a chance to see him play. And likewise with regard to seeing Spellman play after hw sidelined with an ankle injury early in his team's first game of the tournament against Mokan Elite and then spending the rest of the week walking around with a cast on his leg. Bagley was both the leading scorer with 29.3 ppg and the second leading rebounder with 14.3 rpg in the 16-Under Division of the tournament, but comparing him with all of the players on our list below really would be like comparing apples and oranges and, as a result, we have decided not to include him even though his athleticism, skills, and potential are off the chart and he's got all of the ingredients necessary to be the best player to come down the pike in a long time.
