Highlights:
"Another reason for our midseason update is to slide new, worthy candidates into the rankings and give them their due. Small forward Otto Porter (Sikeston, Mo./Scott County Central) debuts at No. 42..."
"We've long held the belief that when Andre Drummond (Middletown, Conn./St. Thomas More) decides to put distance between himself and his classmates, it will be insurmountable for the second-ranked player. We saw no conceivable reason to move Drummond from the top spot. The interesting note regarding the 2012 list is that eight of the top 10 prospects are power forwards or centers."
"Heading into the spring travel season, the point guard and small forward positions appear to be the thinnest in the junior class."

"Nerlens Noel (Everett, Mass./Tilton) and Jabari Parker (Chicago, Ill./Simeon) are elite prospects. Noel, a center, has all the physical ability to morph into a dominant player at both ends. Parker, a cerebral combo forward, is the son of former NBA player Sonny Parker and the owner of scholarship offers from the nation's elite programs.
A set of twins -- Aaron Harrison and Andrew Harrison (Houston, Texas/Travis) -- cracked our top 10, and they are good enough to stick around a long time. Remember, of all our lists, this is the one even Albert Einstein would regard as the least scientific."
I think the twins had an unofficial visit recently.
