The top boys basketball teams across the state continue to shine in the district playoffs with only a few changes in the latest Trib HSSN boys basketball state rankings.

As most of the district postseasons move into the semifinals and championship round this week, the top teams have avoided bracket busters and are moving on as the countdown to the start of the 2024 PIAA boys basketball playoffs is at just over a week.

The only teams to fall out of the rankings from last week were Chester in 6A, Shaler in 5A, Bishop Guilfoyle in 3A and Otto-Eldred in 2A.

Replacing them were Cumberland Valley from District 3, Unionville from D-1, Deer Lakes from D-7 and Redbank Valley from D-9.

The top teams in each classification all remained the same with Lower Merion in 6A, Imhotep Charter in 5A, Neumann-Goretti in 4A, Troy in 3A, Constitution in 2A and Imani Christian in A still at No. 1.
