2023 Rankings: Top Post Players

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Senior class is about to kick off their final season of high school basketball and many of the best prospects will be signing their letters of intent to their college of choice next month. The class has seen a lot of talent defect from it over the last 9 months or so but it's still one of the best Kentucky has seen in a while. Here's a look at the top post players in our updated Senior rankings. This does not include any players ranked in the top 10 in the class. This list also doesn't include PFs who play primarily on the wing or as stretch bigs. Those will be covered in another article.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_6359518d1b8a4","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1108411"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Trent is going to be a steal for whichever school signs him.
