Updated Class of 2028 Rankings - Top Five

Our post-spring update of the Class of 2028 rankings is complete and at the very top, it remains the same but there are a couple of newcomers. Here's a look at the new top five.    Lockhart remains at the top of the list after a solid freshman campaign at Central Catholic. Despite playing on a team stacked with talent, the 6-foot-1 guard was immediately a rotation player and then in mid-season when star guard Bam Paschal went down, Lockhart stepped into the starting lineup. The lefty is one of the top perimeter shooters and scorers in the class and is extremely skilled with the basketball. He's been getting solid minutes with NW Rotary on the EYBL 15U circuit so far this spring.     With his unique blend of size and skills that he demostrated his freshman season, Niko moves up a couple of spots to #2. The 6-foot-2 swingman quickly established himself as one of Benson's leaders on the floor and ended up averaging 15.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 2.7 steals - the last category ranking in the Top 10 in 6A. Niko has been suiting up with Dynasty this spring.     One thing was clear from the start of the season - Foster was one of the top outside shooters we've seen in quite some time. The 5-foot-9 guard quickly proved he was a sniper from three, both off the catch and shoot and creating his own shot. At the end of the year he was a major offensive threat for Gresham, averaging 11.3 points shooting over 43 percent for three - but also as a shot creator, averaging a team-high 4.1 assists. Foster has been performing at a high level for the [program_tooltip program_id='2850997' first='Cascade' last='Kings'] this spring.     As the season went along, Harper-Grant emerged as a major force on a very deep and experienced Grant squad. The 6-foot-3 freshman's combination of length, athleticism, and shooting skill allowed him to contribute at multiple positions on both ends of the floor, and he ended the year averaging 9.7 points and 2.6 rebounds. He also led the team taking 11 charges, showing a willingness to make team plays on the defensive end. He's playing with Elite 24 this off-season.     Another part of Benson's talented Class of 2028 group, Parnell-Patton made an immediate impact for the Techmen in 2024-25. On a team lacking raw height, he made up for that with his athleticism and strength inside but also showed the ability to face the basket and create off the dribble for finishes around the hoop. He missed some time in mid-season due to injury but wound up averaging 7.1 points and 4.9 rebounds.
