For another view of
2022 in-state prospects rankings, Prep Hoops rated
Pharrel Payne the top prospect in Minnesota.
Braeden Carrington was rated the 3rd best.
Carrington made the Star Tribune All Metro team but Payne did not.
Tre Holloman won the Star Tribune Metro Player of the Year.
Carrington won Minnesota Mr. Basketball.
All these rankings and awards are close around a certain range and vary based on viewpoint.
Payne is coming on fast and Carrington at the shooting guard spot needs a bit more time.
Similarly, for girls basketball we saw some variation in winners. Amaya Battle won Minnesota Miss Basketball. Mallory Heyer won Star Tribune Metro Player of the Year. (Minnesota's top prospect Mara Braun was injured part of her senior year and didn't win either award but still made the All Metro team).
