The 2020-21 Girls & Boys Basketball District brackets, with top-two teams seeded, were released Sunday morning on MHSAA.com.

The top two teams in each District were selected based on the Michigan Power Ratings (MPR) from the regular season through Saturday’s games. Those two teams are placed on the opposite sides of their District brackets, making the District Final the earliest those teams could meet.
