Believe it or not- there are people who for a living rate middle school basketball players for their college/pro potential. What are the odds that a middle schooler who is ranked as one of the top players in America doesn't develop any attitude issues? What are the odds their parents don't develop unhealthy plans?

They not only rate top 7-8th graders, but it goes all the way down to rating the top 4th graders in America. If you are one of the top rated 4th graders- is there anywhere to go but down from there?

Top 25- 8th Graders. But note at the bottom, you can also get the list of top 7th graders, 6th graders, 5th graders, and 4th graders!!
