2. Dale (20-2)
Last week: 2
Up next: Tuesday vs. Vanoss

Last week: 3
Up next: Friday vs. Victory Christian
What to know: Class 4A Douglass toppled Class 3A Star Spencer, 52-45, last Friday. With the debut of Jaden Nickens expected Friday, expect the Trojans to take an even further leap with the two-sport star's addition.

4. Midwest City (14-3)
Last week: 4
Up next: Friday vs. Del City
What to know: The mighty Bombers continue their reign atop Class 5A. Midwest City routed both Noble and Santa Fe South by more than 25 points last week to remain undefeated in district play with rival and Class 5A defending champion Del City waiting.
5. Oklahoma Christian School (17-2)
Last week: 7
Up next: Friday vs. Christian Heritage
What to know: The Saints have jumped two spots in the rankings and a lot of that is because of the play of three-star big man Luke Gray. He continued his hot streak on Saturday scoring a career-high 50 points against Harding Charter. His career night came shortly after he was honored for passing Blake Griffin as the all-time leading scorer in Saints program history.

6. Crossings Christian (13-4)
Last week: 6
Up next: Friday vs. Shawnee
What to know: The Knights remain in the same spot despite a two-point loss to El Reno on Tuesday. However, their idle placement is warranted. Crossings Christian has been led by star guard Cal Furnish, who was honored for reaching 1,000 career points before the Knights' 52-point victory over Western Heights on Tuesday.
7. Choctaw (14-4)
Last week: 5
Up next: Friday vs. Bixby
What to know: The Yellowjackets drop two spots after falling to 12-7 Jenks on Friday. However, Choctaw's overtime win over a tough Broken Arrow team on Tuesday served as a huge bounce back. Ja'Mon Valentine and Camden Hyman remain stellar for the Yellowjackets.
8. Norman (14-4)
Last week: 9
Up next: Friday vs. Northwest Classen
What to know: Cory Cole's Tigers are on a roll over with a nine-game win streak. Expect the Trashaun Combs-Pierce led Tigers to keep on pushing for a higher slot in the Fab 10 in the final month of action.
9. Piedmont (15-4)
Last week: NR
Up next: Friday vs. Norman North
What to know: The newest addition to the Fab 10 power rankings are the Braedon Lloyd-led Wildcats, which have been on a roll in the new year. After a dominant 15-point win over Mustang on Tuesday, Piedmont has won five consecutive games while playing in the toughest district in Class 6A.
10. Mustang (13-6)
Last week: 8
Up next: Friday vs. Edmond North
What to know: A rough loss to Piedmont slid the Broncos two spots in the rankings. However, don't count out Mustang despite a tough matchup against No. 1 Edmond North on Friday. Roman Miller and Tyson Pogi continue to dominate opposing defenses.
Outside looking in
Deer Creek (15-4): The Antlers' slip out of the Fab 10 comes after a close loss to Edmond North last Friday. However, don't expect Deer Creek to be out of the rankings for too long.
Guthrie (17-2): The Bluejays' have dominated opposing 5A competition all year long and currently are riding a six-game win streak heading into a rivalry matchup with Carl Albert. After an 11-15 finish last season, guards Braydon Morgan and Alex Clark have led Guthrie's revolution in 2024.
North Rock Creek (17-2): The Cougars have been on a tear over the last few weeks despite losses to OCS and Mount St. Mary. North Rock Creek as it's been streaking for good reason.
Carl Albert (14-4): The Titans have been on a tear, winning 11 of its last 12 games by an average margin of 27 points. Their duo of brothers Quincy and Jayden Hopkins have led Carl Albert's winning ways despite losing Northern Illinois commit Jayden Mott after the Mustang Holiday Classic.
