National Player of the Year: Greg Oden, Lawrence North High, Indianapolis, Ind.
National Coach of the Year: Al Collins, John Ehret High, Marrero, La.
No championship team in the country entered the season with more to overcome than Al Collins and the John Ehret Patriots. The Marrero, La., school - located just outside of Katrina-ravaged New Orleans - scrapped together 10 players that had attended five different schools a year ago only to lose 10 of its first 25 games. But the Patriots rebounded to win 12 of their last 13 contests, capturing Louisiana's 5A title with a 62-57 victory over Woodlawn of Baton Rouge in the finals.
First Team
 |
G - O.J. Mayo (6-5, Junior), North College Hill High, Cincinnati, Ohio
Mayo dropped in 28 points per game this season, but it's the other aspects of his game that make him special. The 6-5 point guard is a peerless passer (5.8 assists per game), rebounds (8.8 rebounds per game), defends (five steals per game), and plays the way you would expect a star to play in big games. Despite battling dehydration and recovering from a stress fracture in his foot, Mayo poured in 43 points, collected six rebounds, and had three assists in front of 16,000 fans in a late February loss to Oak Hill Academy, North College Hill's only defeat of the year.

G - Tywon Lawson (6-0, Senior), Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson, Va.
Lawson is a total-package point guard. He can score (24 points per game), dish (9.6 assists per game), and run a team as well as any floor general in the country. Lawson was tough in the clutch for head coach Steve Smith, putting up 21 points and dishing 10 assists against North College Hill, and outshining Louisiana legend Demond Carter with 27 points and 10 assists against Reserve Christian. Lawson will run the show for Roy Williams' North Carolina Tar Heels next season.

F - Brandan Wright (6-9, Senior), Brentwood Academy, Brentwood, Tenn.
Wright helped Brentwood Academy capture four state titles in the Volunteer State during his career, averaging 27 points and nine rebounds per game this year. The future North Carolina Tar Heel will wrap up his prep career by appearing in the McDonald's All-American Game and the 2006 Nike Hoop Summit.
F - Kevin Durant (6-10, Senior), Montrose Christian School, Rockville, Md.
Durant made a late push onto the first team by helping Montrose Christian knock off national power Oak Hill Academy, Va., and wrestle the title away from a strong, eight-team field at The Dallas Morning News Classic in February. The future Texas Longhorn averaged a double-double, putting up over 20 points and 10 rebounds per night.
C - Greg Oden (7-0, Senior), Lawrence North High, Indianapolis, Ind.
Oden, MaxPreps' 2006 National Player of the Year, averaged 23.7 points and 10.8 rebounds per game, converting over 73 percent of his field goal attempts during the regular season.
In basketball-crazed Indiana, Oden and his Lawrence North teammates will go down as one of the state's greatest dynasties, capturing three-straight 4A titles and ending the season riding a 45-game winning streak.
Oden closed his high school career with 26 points and 16 rebounds in an 80-56 win over Muncie Central, with over 18,000 fans in attendance at Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Lawrence North finished the season at the top of every major poll, including the MaxPreps national rankings, after a 29-0 mark this year. The Wildcats have a record of 103-7 over the past three seasons.
The seven-footer will enter Ohio State next fall as the most highly-rated player to attend college since Carmelo Anthony four years ago.
Second Team
G - Derrick Rose (6-4, Junior), Simeon High, Chicago, Ill.
A multi-dimensional point guard, Rose averaged 20 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists per outing. The junior was at his best when the stakes were high for Simeon, leading the school to its first Class AA title since 1984. Rose was a thorn in the side of the state's two most celebrated seniors, as Simeon took three of four contests from Jon Scheyer's Glenbrook North team and Sherron Collins' Crane Tech squad.
G - Jon Scheyer (6-6, Senior), Glenbrook North High, Northbrook, Ill.
The next J.J. Redick? Duke fans hope so as Scheyer will look to replace the ACC's all-time leading scorer in the Blue Devil lineup next season. The 6-6 sharpshooter poured in 29.4 points per game, and had a four-game stretch in December where he averaged 44.2 with games of 43, 41, 52, and 41.
F - Thaddeus Young (6-8, Senior), Mitchell High, Memphis, Tenn.
Young is considered by many to be the highest-profile recruit from talent-rich Memphis since Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway. The Georgia Tech-bound forward averaged 25.6 points per game with 13.8 rebounds, and was versatile enough to play point guard in some situations. Young helped Mitchell to a 31-7 record and earned Tennessee's Gatorade Player of the Year honor.
F - Kevin Love (6-10, Junior), Lake Oswego High, Lake Oswego, Ore.
O.J. Mayo will be tough to unseat as the best high school player in America next year, but if is anybody up to the task, it might be Love. It was tough to keep the polished post man off the first team after averaging 28.9 points and 17 rebounds per game while leading Lake Oswego to Oregon's Class 4A title. Love had an unbelievable line against Dominguez in December, scoring 27 points and collecting 36 rebounds against the perennial California powerhouse. The 6-10 junior could skip his senior season entirely and still go down as the most celebrated high school player in Oregon history.
C - Brian Zoubek (7-2, Senior), Haddonfield High, Haddonfield, N.J.
Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski can't wait to get his hands on the ultra-productive Zoubek, who helped Haddonfield achieve an 87-7 record with three-straight NJSIAA Group 2 titles over the final three years of his career. Zoubek carried Haddonfield in big games, scoring 27 with 12 rebounds in a 14-point win over perennial national power St. Anthony, and 21 points, 20 rebounds, and eight blocks against Newark Central in the state final.
Third Team
G - Demond Carter (5-11, Senior), Reserve Christian School, Reserve, La.
Not enough has been made of Carter's incredible high school career, which actually began when he joined the starting lineup at Reserve Christian in seventh grade. As a senior, "Tweety" broke the national record for three-pointers in a season with 287, averaging 34 points per game. Going back to his varsity debut six years ago, Carter accumulated a state-record 7,494 points, leading the New Orleans-area in scoring five times, and guiding Reserve Christian to four state titles. Look for Carter to take the point for Scott Drew at Baylor from day one.
G - Sherron Collins (5-11, Senior), Richard T. Crane Tech Prep, Chicago, Ill.
Collins will join an already-loaded Kansas team next fall, showcasing the ability that allowed him to stuff the stat sheet with 26 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists per game this season. The Chicago product, also a standout football player, will be in San Diego for the McDonald's All-American Game today.
G - Isaiah Dahlman (6-6, Senior), Braham High, Braham, Minn.
Dahlman will suit up for Tom Izzo's Michigan State Spartans next year after a run at Braham that will be difficult to match. The 6-6 shooter is Minnesota's all-time leading scorer with 3,365 career points and helped his school capture three state titles while accumulating a record of 115-10. Dahlman averaged over 34 points per game as a senior, and was able to play alongside brothers Noah (junior) and Jonah (freshman) this season.
 |
F - Bill Walker (6-6, Junior), North College Hill High, Cincinnati, Ohio
The other half of North College Hill's "Dynamic Duo", Walker is one of the few players in the country capable of occasionally overshadowing O.J. Mayo. The uber-athletic small forward averaged 21 points per game, and like Mayo, brings more to the floor than just scoring. Walker was named the most valuable player of Ohio's Division III state tournament, averaging 22.5 points per game, 11.5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists.

F - Chase Budinger (6-7, Senior), La Costa Canyon High, Carlsbad, Calif.
Budinger's performance against Eastlake in the San Diego Section title game was almost enough to warrant inclusion on the MaxPreps All-American team alone. The 6-7 future Arizona Wildcat racked up 50 points and 14 rebounds in an 85-73 win for his Mavericks in that game. Budinger averaged 32.7 points per game this season and leaves La Costa Canyon as the San Diego Section's all-time leading scorer with 2,930 points.

High Honorable Mention (Listed Alphabetically)
Darrell Arthur (6-9, Senior), South Oak Cliff High, Dallas, Texas
Arthur earned The Dallas Morning News' nod as All-Area player of the year, joining an impressive recent list that includes C.J. Miles, LaMarcus Aldridge, Chris Bosh, and Bracey Wright. The McDonald's All-American averaged 17.7 points per game and over 10 rebounds, but shined on the big stage, putting up 28 points per game and hauling in almost 14 rebounds over the final three games of his high school career, helping give South Oak Cliff back-to-back state titles.
 |
Michael Beasley (6-9, Junior), Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson, Va.
Beasley will replace first team selection Tywon Lawson as Oak Hill Academy's go-to guy next season. The wildly-athletic junior forward averaged 19.1 points per game to go along with 10.3 rebounds. Beasley, originally from Fredrick, Md., compiled 21 double-doubles this season.

Jawan Carter (5-11, Senior), The Tatnall School, Wilmington, Del.
Delaware's Player of the Year, Carter was unstoppable throughout his career at The Tatnall School. This season, the 5-11 guard averaged 29.4 points per game and led the Hornets to a 22-4 record and the state title. Carter finished as Delaware's all-time leading scorer with 2,464 points, and will play for head coach Phil Martelli at St. Joseph's University next fall.
Earl Clark (6-9, Senior), Rahway High, Rahway, N.J.
It's obviously a great year at the forward position when a player of Clark's caliber is only an honorable mention selection. Clark, a McDonald's All-American, dominated in the paint this season, averaging 25.2 points per game and 12 rebounds, but is versatile enough to potentially play the small forward position next season for Rick Pitino's Louisville Cardinals.
Daequan Cook (6-5, Senior), Dunbar High, Dayton, Ohio
One of the top shooters in the 2006 class, Cook contributed 24.5 points a night for a loaded Dunbar squad and was Ohio's Division II Player of the Year. The Dayton product will join Lawrence North teammates Greg Oden and Mike Conley, fellow Ohioan David Lighty, and Florida's Othello Hunter at Ohio State next fall in what is being billed as the nation's top recruiting class.
Javaris Crittenton (6-5, Senior), Southwest Atlanta Christian, Atlanta, Ga.
Crittenton, who hails from the same high school program that produced Orlando Magic star Dwight Howard, experienced a storybook high school career. Georgia's Mr. Basketball, Crittenton was a four-time all-state selection and played in four state title games, winning two of them. This season, the athletic and tall point guard averaged 30 points per game and nine assists. Crittenton will take his game to Georgia Tech University next season, where he will team with fellow MaxPreps All-American Thaddeus Young.
Wayne Ellington (6-4, Senior), The Episcopal Academy, Merion, Pa.
The only thing holding Ellington back from being a first, second, or third team selection is Episcopal Academy teammate and fellow MaxPreps All-American Gerald Henderson. The pair combined for over 40 points per game, leading the Churchmen to a 27-4 record. Ellington, also considered a top-notch defender, chipped in 21.1 points per game and will play for the North Carolina Tar Heels next season after a trip to San Diego for the McDonald's All-American Game.
Tyreke Evans (6-4, Sophomore), American Christian School, Aston, Pa.
"Tyreke the Freak" is the only sophomore among the top 30 selections on the 2006 MaxPreps All-American Team. Widely regarded as the nation's top underclassman, Evans poured in 25.8 points, collected 8.8 rebounds, and handed out 5.3 assists per night against a schedule that featured a myriad of national and regional powers, including The Episcopal Academy, Pa., Artesia, Calif., St. Benedict's Prep, N.J., St. Patrick, N.J., and The Tatnall School, Del. Evans began playing varsity basketball for the Eagles in seventh grade.
Eric Gordon (6-4, Junior), North Central High, Indianapolis, Ind.
With Greg Oden in the neighborhood, Gordon's junior campaign was slightly overshadowed. But the North Central guard established himself as one of the top non-senior backcourt players in the country, averaging 25.4 points per game. Already committed to Illinois, Gordon led the Panthers to a 20-4 record and a second place finish in the Metropolitan League, behind only Oden and Lawrence North.
Spencer Hawes (7-0, Senior), Seattle Preparatory, Seattle, Wash.
Hawes led Seattle Prep to the Washington 3A title, averaging 19.9 points, 11.3 rebounds, 3.1 blocks, and three assists. The future Washington Husky was named the Evergreen State's Player of the Year by The Seattle Times and will go head-to-head with fellow seven-footer Greg Oden in the McDonald's All-American Game.
Gerald Henderson (6-5, Senior), The Episcopal Academy, Merion, Pa.
Henderson is the other half of The Episcopal Academy's impressive one-two punch. The future Duke Blue Devil averaged 21.5 points per game and will join teammate Wayne Ellington in the McDonald's All-American Game in San Diego. Look for the Ellington vs. Henderson, North Carolina vs. Duke angle to be a prominent story in the nation's best college basketball rivalry over the next four years.
 |
Taylor King (6-7, Junior), Mater Dei High, Santa Ana, Calif.
Like Gerald Henderson, King is headed for Duke, but Mike Krzyzewski will have to wait another year for this scoring phenomenon's services. King's reputation has been built on his ability to score, and specifically his marksmanship from three-point range. The Mater Dei junior averaged 26.4 points per game and connected on 100 three-pointers, but he also led the Monarchs in rebounding (12.4 per game). Mater Dei finished with a 33-3 record and a trip to the California Division II finals.

Scottie Reynolds (6-1, Senior), Herndon High, Herndon, Va.
Despite being named to the McDonald's All-American team, Reynolds remains one of the nation's most underappreciated talents. A three-time selection as Virginia's Northern Region player of the year, the future Oklahoma Sooner averaged 27.2 points per game and is considered to be the best Virginia guard since Allen Iverson.
Jerry Smith (6-3, Senior), Wauwatosa East High, Wauwatosa, Wis.
Smith doesn't get the ink that many of his counterparts across the country do, but if he is good enough for Rick Pitino and Louisville, he is good enough for the MaxPreps All-America team. Smith, Wisconsin's Player of the Year, averaged 25.1 points per game this season and is the first hooper in Badger State history to be named first team All-State three-straight years.
Isaiah Thomas (5-8, Junior), Curtis High, Tacoma, Wash.
Arguably the best player under 5-10 in the country, Thomas exploded in the Washington 4A State Tournament, averaging 40.5 points over a four-game span, including a record 51 in the quarterfinals. The junior point guard led the state in scoring on the season, pouring in 32.8 points per game and leading his Vikings to a 25-4 record.
Honorable Mention (Listed Alphabetically)
D.J. Augustin (5-11, Senior), Hightower High, Missouri City, Texas
Augustin began his senior year expecting to suit up for Brother Martin in New Orleans, but Hurricane Katrina changed all of that. Eight months later, Augustin is at a new school in a new state, but that didn't stop the 5-11 point guard from making the most of his final high school campaign. Augustin averaged 19 points per game and six assists for Hightower High. He will stay in the Lone Star State and join Rick Barnes and the Texas Longhorns next season.
Luke Babbitt (6-7, Sophomore), Galena High, Reno, Nev.
Babbitt could be a mainstay on the MaxPreps All-American team over the next two years if he continues to produce the way he did as a sophomore. The 6-7 post averaged 25.2 points and seven rebounds per game, earning Nevada Northern Region Co-Player of the Year honors and first team All-State by the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Babbitt has already toppled the 1,100-point mark for his career.
 |
Matt Bouldin (6-5, Senior), ThunderRidge High, Highlands Ranch, Colo.
Colorado's Mr. Basketball paced ThunderRidge to a 19-6 record by averaging 25.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game despite fighting through an injured ankle for a portion of the season. Bouldin will take his talents West to potentially link up with another shaggy-haired scoring sensation next season, Gonzaga's Adam Morrison.

Rotnei Clarke (6-0, Sophomore), Verdigris High, Claremore, Okla.
Playing in Oklahoma's 3A classification, Clarke may not face the state's elite 4A and 5A teams night after night, but it's impossible to ignore his incredible sophomore season. The 6-0 shooting guard kept scoreboard operators busy, throwing up 36.8 points per night. Clarke is an efficient scorer, shooting 50.6 percent from the field and 43.6 from three-point range, not to mention 89.7 percent from the foul line. The sophomore's scoring exploits helped Verdigris compile a 24-4 season record and reach the state semifinals.
Matt Hill (6-11, Senior), Lincoln Southeast High, Lincoln, Neb.
Considered to be the best big man from the state of Nebraska in more than 20 years, Hill spurned the hometown Cornhuskers to play for Rick Barnes and the Texas Longhorns. A two-time All-Nebraska selection, Hill averaged 20.1 points per game and 12.2 rebounds this season.
Tory Jackson (5-10, Senior), Buena Vista High, Saginaw, Mich.
Jackson led Buena Vista to the Michigan Class C title as a sophomore and again this season. The Notre Dame-bound guard was instant offense this year, averaging 30 points, 7.5 rebounds, 8.0 assists, and 4.5 steals per outing. Jackson was a finalist for the state's Mr. Basketball award and was a member of the Detroit Free Press All-State "Dream Team".
Damion James (6-8, Senior), Nacogdoches High, Nacogdoches, Texas
James was a four-year starter and three-time District 17-4A most valuable player at Nacogdoches High in east Texas. This Oklahoma signee averaged 25 points and 15 rebounds per contest, leading the Dragons to a 22-10 record and a trip to the regional quarterfinals. The versatile forward should find a spot in the Sooner rotation right away with his ability to rebound, defend, and step out and hit the three.
Armon Johnson (6-2, Junior), Hug High, Reno, Nev.
Along with sophomore Luke Babbitt, Johnson should help bring plenty of attention to high school basketball in "The Biggest Little City in the World" next season. Unheralded outside of Nevada, the Hug High guard led Nevada's Northern Region in scoring at 30.4 points per game, while bringing in 7.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 2.3 steals. Johnson shared Northern Region Player of the Year honors with Babbitt, and was also a member of the Las Vegas Review-Journal's first team All-State team.
 |
James Keefe (6-8, Senior), Santa Margarita High, Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif.
This has been a big week for Keefe, as he will participate in the McDonalds' All-American Game today, while his future teammates at UCLA are bound for the Final Four. The CIF Southern Section Division IIIAA Player of the Year, Keefe is a true power forward, averaging 20.9 points per game and 14 rebounds while leading Santa Margarita to a 27-5 record.

Eric Schiele (5-9, Senior), Waterloo High, Atwater, Ohio
A former teammate of LeBron James at St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Schiele transferred to Waterloo High two years ago and created a legacy of his own. Unofficially, Schiele led the country in scoring per game, putting up an unbelievable 41.3 points a night during the regular season, and 39.5 including the playoffs. He doesn't get a lot of attention outside of Ohio, but Buckeye State scribes thought enough about him to name him Division III Co-Player of the Year, along with North College Hill stars O.J. Mayo and Bill Walker, and Nate Davis of Bellaire.
DeShawn Sims (6-8, Senior), Pershing High, Detroit, Mich.
In a city always packed with basketball talent, Sims was "The Man" in the Motor City this season. The future Michigan Wolverine was simply dominant, averaging 25 points and 12 rebounds per game, leading the Doughboys to the school's second-straight Detroit Public Schools League title. Sims was named to the Detroit Free Press "Dream Team" and was the state's Gatorade Player of the Year.
Kyle Singler (6-8, Junior), South Medford High, Medford, Ore.
As much attention as second-team selection Kevin Love receives in the state of Oregon, Singler isn't far behind. The 6-8 wing, who has drawn comparisons to another former Oregon high school standout, Mike Dunleavy, Jr., averaged 20.5 points and 5.4 rebounds per game this season. Singler led the Panthers to a 27-2 record, coming up short against Love's Lake Oswego squad in the Oregon 4A title game.
Sanijay Watts (6-4, Senior), Jennings High, Jennings, Mo.
Watts willed his way to 28.5 points per game, shooting 63 percent from the field and also making time to bring in 10.7 rebounds per game. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch Player of the Year, Watts led Jennings to a 23-7 record, a conference title, and a trip to the state quarterfinals. The 6-4 post has been all an All-State level player since his sophomore campaign and a double-figures scorer each of his four seasons at Jennings.
Bryce Webster (6-9, Senior), St. Thomas Academy, Mendota Heights, Minn.
The big-bodied Webster averaged a double-double this season with 21.6 points and 11.5 rebounds per game. The future Minnesota Golden Gopher was named Minneapolis Metro Player of the Year by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, following in the footsteps of notable names like Khalid El-Amin (1996), Joel Pryzbilla (1998), and Kris Humphries (2003).
Chris Wright (6-1, Junior), St. John's College, Washington, D.C.
Despite being just a junior, Wright was the best player in the District of Columbia this season. A do-it-all point guard in the mold of Chris Paul, Wright has already committed to North Carolina State over interest from Georgetown, Maryland, Villanova, and Wake Forest. The floor general averaged 21.6 points per game and led the Cadets to a 22-9 record. Against national power DeMatha Catholic in January, Wright scored a season-high 35 points and connected on seven three-pointers.
