Marvin Bagley Remains #1 In The Loaded 2018 Class
There were many prospects who saw their stock explode in the 2018 class after the spring live period, but no one could quite dethrone Marvin Bagley from the top.
Bagley continues to amaze scouts and coaches with his ultimate versatility and athleticism along with his elite size. He has been nothing short of impressive and exciting to watch in the EYBL where he's going against top-tier talent game in and game out.
There are obvioulsy plenty of supremely talented players in this class, but Bagley still has the top spot safely secured.
Stocks Exploding
Two amazing athletes and dominant playmakers jumped into the top five, with shooting guard Romeo Langford and combo forward Zion Williamson coming in at #2 and #5, respectively.
Langford showcased his elite athleticism, ridiculous scoring abilities, and tough-nosed defense on the Adidas Gauntlet Circuit and earned offers from Duke, Kansas, and Kentucky. While Williamson displayed a dominant inside/out game, and crushed everyone on the glass. He continues to rack up offers and now is up to 27 schools on his list.
Climbing The Ladder
Several prospects saw their national rankings improve throughout the spring. West coast forward Miles Norris (#13), Minnesota point guard Tre Jones (#21), North Carolina floor general Devon Dotson (#32), Southern California forward Taeshon Cherry (#41) & New York City center Moses Brown (#48) all are safely into the top 50 after standing out during the spring.
Welcome To The Rankings
There are several newcomers to the class of 2018 national rankings. Some of the highest rated of these prospects include; North Carolina point man Coby White (#27), Ohio forward Darius Bazley (#45), Chicago floor general Ayo Dosunmu (#60) & New York power wing Jeenathan Williams (#100).
