Pictured: Jermaine SaundersRealScout.net Editor Nathan Blue, takes a look at the Top 25 players who have impressed me from NYC (or LI) in the 2011 class.
There are a lot of lists out there, but after watching and doing my research on workout habits and other factors, the list was smoother than I previously thought. This 2011 is loaded with point guards and shooting guards with good resumes.
No long profiles, just take my word, no bums on this list, check it out.

RealScout.net 2011 Pre-Summer Rankings
#1. Jermaine Saunders 6'5 New Heights (Rice) SG - Big Time Lefty, the 2007/08 RealScout.net Rookie of the Year is the best player in the 2011 class. Simple
2. Maurice Harkless 6'7 Juice All-Stars (Forest Hills) SF- Finally turning 16 years old. Harkless has improved alot since losing to Jefferson in the psal playoffs. His small forward skills and improved body strength make him a big time prospect in the 2011 class. Harkless had a excellent showing at Boo Williams, Big Shots (VCU), and Hoop group Top 100 camp.

Davontay Grace 5'11 LI Lightning (Jefferson ) PG- The number 1 pg in the class, grace has been having a solid spring, leading the lightning to the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions Final.
4. Mike Taylor 6'2 Metro Hawks (Boys & Girls) SG- The best shooter in the class, taylor has been receiving alot of hate amongst his peers. But, his mvp showing at Gym Ratz was a nice way to shut up his city critics.
5. Corey Edwards 5'10 New Heights (Christ the King) PG- The best passer in the class, corey will be forever labeled as a defensive stopper/leader. I've been watching him play for 3 years and hes impressed me 99.9 percent of the time. A true winner.

Ashcraf Yacoubou 6'4 Rich Soil (LI Lutheran) SG- Not visible, but not invisible. yacoubou has recently just got into the aau side of things. Spending most of his spring working out in LI with Jerry Powell (Basketball Results)
7. Jabari Hinds 6'0 Westchester Hawks (Mt. Vernon) PG- Tough
8. Sidiki Johnson 6'7 LI Lightning (St. Raymonds) PF/SF- Johnson's talent is scary. If he stays around the basket could be similar to Jason Fraser (in High School)
