We got to evaluate the very first varsity games for Ziaire Williams (then at Sherman Oaks Notre Dame) and Jalen Green (San Joaquin Memorial) at the Diablo Inferno Tournament in South Orange County in 2016. Four years later, both are on track to play in the NBA in the not too distant future. Photo: Ronnie Flores
We continue our boys basketball coverage for Gold Club members with a final look at the state’s top college prospects in the senior (2020) class. Our final 2020 Cal-Hi Sports Hot 100 shows nine new players and plenty of upward movement for those who had excellent senior seasons. Our final 2019-20 rankings for the 2021, 2022 and 2023 classes will be published within the next week.

The final 2020 Cal-Hi Sports Hot 100 is based on evaluations from performances back to fall league and the entire 2019-20 season (including the section playoffs and CIF regional championships). Our post-summer Cal-Hi Sports Hot 100 was based on last year’s summer evaluation period and showcases. For the first time, we did not publish winter rankings, as we were looking to publish right before the regional playoffs until COVID-19 started changing our plans. Our winter rankings are usually through the regular season, but we had a good idea if the season was canceled there also would be no spring live evaluation period for unsigned seniors.
And there wasn’t. COVID-19 has permeated all aspect of life and high school basketball and college recruiting wasn’t spared.
