For the first time in 2019, Benton Harbor is no longer the No. 1 team in the state's top 25 rankings. This week's edition of MLive's top 25 boys basketball rankings has a few other changes, including the editions of Ypsilanti Lincoln and Harper Woods Chandler Park Academy.
Here is MLive's latest list of the top 25 boys basketball teams in the state, regardless of class.
25. Ypsilanti Lincoln 10-1
Division 1

24. Walled Lake Northern 14-0
Division 1
The Knights continue to roll and haven't shown any signs of slowing down. Last week, Northern picked up a 37-point win over South Lyon East and a 20-point win over Walled Lake Central.

Beecher came so close to notching a marquee win at home on Saturday when it fell to Detroit U-D Jesuit. Despite coming close to knocking off the Cubs, it is Beecher's second loss in three games. The road remains tough for the Bucs this week as it travels to Grand Blanc on Tuesday and then hosts Goodrich on Friday for a matchup that could decide the Genesee Area Conference Red Division regular season title.

Division 1
Clarkston only seems to be getting stronger as January presses on. After a 31-point win over Bloomfield Hills, the Wolves dismantled rival Lake Orion, 64-38, thanks in part to some stellar 3-point shooting. The freshman guard pair of Fletcher Loyer and Keegan Wasilk certainly have a bright future as the next great tandem in Michigan.
