<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">No. 1</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">A top-fifty recruit in the country, Alexander posted a terrific senior season to ensure his position atop the touted ’21 class. He posted 27.3 PPG, 10.1 RPG and 4.2 APG in his junior tirade through 4A. Whether Alexander will have a chance to get his second Gold Ball in 2020 is unclear, but it was clear that Alexander was the most dominant player in his class. A 6-foot-4-inch frame does not hurt the four-star recruit, either.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">No. 2</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">The Southern Sharpshooter is one of the most talented shooters in the state. At 6-foot-7-inches, the Texas-A&M-commit is one of the top-fifty recruits in the country, and with another season to-go, the sky is the limit for him. Aside from hitting 10, 11 or even 12 triples on a hot shooting night, Robinson’s height lends him un-compromised floor vision while his skill takes him the distance; whether scoring, passing or rebounding, Robinson is one of the best in the state.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">No. 3</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">Whether it’s scoring or passing, Cortes is one of the most creative players in the state. That craftiness became a catalyst in the Oklahoma-commit’s outstanding junior season, where Cortes scored 21.9 points-a-contest and made highlight reels on a near-daily basis. At 6-foot-2-inches, Cortes may be one of the most modest commits in the 2021 class, but don’t mistake his casual appearance for a lack of skill; Pound-for-pound, inch-for-inch, Cortes is as talented as any player in the state.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">No. 4</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">Perhaps the most impressive athlete in the Oklahoma 2021 class, Shannon overcome a crucial injury in his freshman year to becoming one of the best scorers and defenders in the state. At 6-foot-2-inches, Shannon packs an apparently endless reserve of energy, explosive strength and skill into his frame. Shannon led the Huskies’ attack on both ends of the floor as they fell just short of their first State-Tournament birth since 2016.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">No. 5</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;">Young had one of the most impressive breakout seasons in recent memory. With a 6-foot-7-inch lanky frame and a wing-span to match it, Young added a mighty skill-set to his stature last summer, becoming one of the most tantalizing players in the class as he shredded through competition as a scorer at all three levels. Sneakily, Young is also one of the best shooters in the Oklahoma City area, and he’s only getting better.</span></p>
