Steve Smith
Record: 38-0
Season highlights: National Prep Basketball Poll national champions, won five tournament/invitational titles
Key contributors: Rajon Rondo, Josh Smith, Brian Johnson, DayShawn Wright, Aaron Scott
Legacy: While Rondo has emerged as one of the NBA's elite point guards, Josh Smith created much of the buzz for this Oak Hill Academy team with his highlight-producing athleticism. He took advantage of a big senior year at OHA by jumping straight to the pros and was drafted 17th overall by Atlanta. As noted above, the 2003-04 Warriors captured five tournament titles, including the Iolani Prep Classic in Hawaii and the GlaxoSmithKline Invitational in Raleigh, N.C.
