Andrew Christian Wiggins (born February 23, 1995) is a Canadian high school basketball player born in Toronto, Ontario, and raised in Thornhill, Ontario, who is considered the top U.S. college basketball recruit for 2013. Wiggins had been rated as the top prospect for 2014, but announced in October 2012 that he would officially reclassify into his original high school class of 2013, and was immediately placed ahead of the previous number one prospect, Jabari Parker, by ESPN. Wiggins was named the 2013 Naismith Prep Player of the Year on February 25, 2013 and 2013 Gatorade boy’s basketball National Player of the Year on March 28 as the nation’s top high school player.
