Ranking the top ten prospects in high school basketball

On the first Monday of each month, On3 is scheduled to release a rankings update. In July, we updated the 2025 On3 150. In June, it was the 2024 On3 150. This week, we watched Nike’s Peach Jam, Adidas 3SSB Circuit Championships, and Under Armour Next Championships. Coming off July’s first Live Evaluation Period for college coaches, I thought it would be a fun exercise to rank the totality of high school basketball. 

We did this same exercise around this time last year, naming Cooper Flagg the No. 1 prospect in high school basketball. Within this exercise, On3 has a recently updated version of the full 2024 On3 150 and the 2025 On3 150. We are not currently scheduled to put out a 2026 class ranking until the Fall. 

The 2025 and 2026 classes have a chance to be special (at the very least, an upward climb from the previous classes). A quick look through the current high school basketball top ten rankings and AJ Dybantsa and Cooper Flagg have established themselves in a tier to themselves.

Dybantsa is coming off a week at Peach Jam that saw him lead the 17U division in scoring (25.8). In June, he previously averaged 13.8 per game for the USA Basketball U16 team en route to a gold medal in the FIBA Americas Championships. Flagg is coming off a Peach Jam week that saw him finish in the 16U division’s top-five in points (25.4), rebounds (10.9), assists (5.7), and blocks (6.9). He previously won the MVP of the NBPA Top 100 Camp in Orlando. 

Six players from this list come from the 2025 class. Two come from each of the 2024 and 2026 classes. Let’s dive into the ranking.
