1. Birmingham Detroit Country Day
The Yellowjackets are playing their best basketball of the season, scoring as well as anybody and playing some stellar defense at the same time and it showed as Country Day blasted red-hot Ferndale 88-59 on Tuesday night.
2. Clarkston
Nick Tatu has continued to be one of the best all-around players that Oakland County has to offer, no only is he a lockdown defender, but he can score with the best of them with his deadly 3-point shooting ability and proved it last week with his mind-boggling 12 3-pointers and 47 points against Troy.
3.Rochester
Some how the Falcons have flown under the radar all season long, even with two of the county’s best scorers in Taylor Perry and Paris Pereira who have led Rochester to a 15-1 record and 15 straight wins.
4. Ferndale
Ferndale’s impressive 11 game winning streak finally came to an end on Tuesday night, but with Nate Stepney and Jordan Ellis playing some stellar basketball, there’s no reason to think that Ferndale can’t put together another long winning streak.
5. (Tie) North Farmington
The Raiders had one of the toughest schedules to start the season, but now they are streaking at the right time and are getting big time play from Dorrell Foster, Caleb Hogans and Sterling Sharp lately.
5. (Tie) Troy
It’s been a tough year for the Colts after losing a couple of big time contributors for different reasons, but the Colts have been looking like an improved team and are have quickly returned to the form that many expected them to be in at the start of the season.
6. Madison Heights Madison
Damon Bozeman can do it all for Madison, scoring 39 points and grabbing 16 rebounds on Tuesday night, but it’s not just the Bozeman show in Madison Heights. Tevin Washington, Will Bradley and Co. are quietly have some impressive seasons as well.
7. Waterford Mott
The Corsairs might have the most underrated frontcourt duo in Oakland County in Brady Losh and DaVonte Daniel and paired with all-everything senior Khalil Malone, Mott has shocked just about everyone in Oakland County and has grabbed a KLAA Lakes conference title.
8. Pontiac
The Phoenix have continued to improve this season, and with a young team highlighted by point guard Vezzie Carthane, Pontiac should be a team to keep an eye on in the playoffs and down the road next year.
9. Madison Heights Bishop Foley
The Ventures can find scoring from just about anywhere, with senior star Corey Green and sharpshooter Max Aleshire, Bishop Foley is a very tough team to shutdown and even after back to back losses, they will be a tough out in the playoffs.
10. (Tie) Milford
The Mavericks caught many by surprise this season, only suffering to losses on the year and fell just short of picking up a KLAA Lakes title. The Mavericks have one of the top defensive squads around and it should help them during the KLAA playoffs.
10. (Tie) Novi Detroit Catholic Central
The Shamrocks, much like Milford, have been one of the top defensive teams in Oakland County this year and haven’t let up so far. The only way to beat the Shamrocks is to hope they have an off night shooting the ball, because scoring on them really isn’t an option.
