States with most high school basketball players in the NBA conference semifinals

We took a deep dive into high school basketball programs and states with the most alumni on the rosters of teams still alive in the postseason. While transfers cloud the picture, we connected players to the school where they finished their prep career.

Texas leads the way with 13 players who have reached the NBA postseason's second round. A pair of Indiana stars in Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner both hail from the Lone Star State.

Florida is second with 10 selections with three each from IMG Academy (Bradenton) and Montverde Academy (Montverde).

California is third with eight, including Evan Mobley of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Aaron Gordon from the Denver Nuggets.

Georgia is close behind with seven, including Jaylen Brown of the Boston Celtics and Minnesota superstar Edwards.

Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Darius Garland of the Cavaliers are the leaders from the state of Tennessee. The duo could be on a collision course to meet in the NBA Finals.

In total, 37 states including the District of Columbia have a player represented on this list. Texas – 13
