Whether you like the one-and-done culture or not, it’s changed college basketball for the better. The best players have to come to college and this crop of freshman is this most talented that we’ve ever seen.

Below are 10 players that’ll be in NBA uniforms this time next year:

Harry Giles, PF, Duke

Giles was the number one ranked prospect in the 2016 class despite suffering torn ACL’s in both knees in high school. At 6-foot-10 and 240 lbs. he’s the prototypical four man in today’s NBA. The only question with him is can he stay healthy?

 

De’Aaron Fox, PG, Kentucky

This is Kentucky’s most talented team since 2014 and Fox has been given the keys to the offense. Coach Calipari has said that Fox is faster with the ball than former Wildcat John Wall.

 

Lonzo Ball, PG, UCLA

Ball is a 6’5″ point guard that has Stephen Curry-like range and the ability to drive by you and dunk on your head.

 

Josh Jackson, SF, Kansas

Jackson has the most potential of any prospect on this list. The 6’8″ wing is the type of player every NBA team dreams of acquiring. Throughout this season he needs to improve his jump shot and show that he can create for himself offensively.

 

Markelle Fultz, PG, Washington

Fultz has the skills and size to play either guard spot at 6-foot-5 with a 6-foot-9 wingspan. Right now he’s the odds-on favorite to be taken with the No. 1 pick in NBA draft. In his debut at Washington, he stuffed the stat sheet with 30 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists.
