Top 150 Native Cities of Men's NCAA Basketball Players

Can you guess the top 150 native cities that Division I NCAA men's basketball players come from?
Thousands of players' home cities could not be located (especially older ones)
This is an inexact science; many players could plausibly claim multiple cities as their hometowns
Foreign cities = red
This quiz took 3-5 hours every day for nearly 6 WHOLE MONTHS to make....so please take it lol!!!!
