The Top 40 High Schools That Have Produced the Most NBA Players

#17 Huntington Prep (Huntington, W.Va.) – 9 Players

Riding on the coattails of the lauded Oak Hill Academy, further “basketball high schools” began cropping up throughout the nation, with Huntington Prep. being one of them. The Prep calls itself a “basketball-focused college preparatory school”, with its actual squad committed to a national schedule, rather than simply West Virginia’s schools. The Prep will admit any potential-filled young sportspeople the world over, with almost anyone standing on their court being a prospective Division I star at minimum. Out of the nine alumni out of Huntington, six have performed within the NBA from 2018 onwards, such as 2014 to 2015, Rookie of the Year winning and the peak draft pick, Andrew Wiggins.

Philadelphia, alongside the other four cities (Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York), has cracked the one hundred NBA player supply. The majority of ballers to arise out of Roman Catholic High School are recent, with 6 out of 8 alumni having performed within the NBA from 2000 onwards. Who is the best-regarded “Cahillite” to enter the NBA? That would have to be Rasual Butler, Cahillite being taken from Roman Catholic’s mascot named after Thomas Cahill, the school’s founder.
