With Florida Gators are crowned national champions For the third time in the history of their school, it is time to prepare for the next wave of young talents to shake the NBA (and your sketches of fantastic basketball).
If these highly praised perspectives land in the right situations, they could be key contributors from their recruit campaign. Here is an overview of the five names you need to know, starting with the headliner itself.
Cooper Flagg – Forward, Duke Blue Devils
The NCAA tournament has finished Flagg again as a global choice not disputed and consensus in the draft of the NBA 2025. It is the reason why the NBA teams did the most for Juke the parameters around the reports and the tanking of injuries all year round. Standing standing at 6’9 “, Flagg is a” Can’t Miss “perspective with a blatant advantage as a bidirectional player polite at the next level.
Regarding the fantasy, Flagg has the talent of contributing from day 1 as a modern version of Andrei Kirilenko. He can mark at three levels and is also a cunning playmaker. Add his elite athletics to his relentless engine in defense, and he has the feeling of a multi-category jewel. He completed his first year on average by 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.4 3s, 1.4 interceptions and 1.4 blocks with 48/39/84. Oh, and an assistance / filming ratio of 2: 1. A choice of fantastic draft in mid-turn is not out of the question.
Dylan Harper – Guard, Rutgers Scarlet Knights
The highly praised goalkeeper collected an average of 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists on 48% shooting during his first year. We did not see Harper in the tournament, but he did more than than a regular season to be worthy of a choice among the first three in the next draft of the NBA.
Harper is a big guard who plays with an exceptional rhythm and rhythm. He also uses his size to get down with relative ease and thrives in transition. As a reliable playmaker who also gets buckets, Harper’s landing point will be crucial, but there is a path for him to be a fantastic asset for the points, bounces and steals the tear. Jazz or wizards would be an ideal adjustment.
Derik Queen – Forward / Center, Maryland Terrapins
Queen has improved its draft stock after having directed Maryland to Sweet 16. The Baltimore native is offensively offensively, presenting a handful, a vision and an exceptional leg set throughout the tournament. He excelled as a Maryland hub and the IQ and the versatility of adapting to the style of NBA play.
He is the size to play forward or in the center and his refined post-match makes him a potential double threat in the right situation. Its ceiling could increase even more if its perimeter game is changing, but it gives me Julius Randle meets Zac Randolph Vibes after completing its first year on average 16.5 points with 9.0 rebounds per game.
Jeremiah fears – guard, oklahoma sooners
Jordan Poole 2.0? Regarding offensive creativity, Jeremiah Fears has a spark difficult to contain. His first rapid step, his ability to weave through defenders and talent for hitting hard fire in making a threat of score every time he touches the ball. And it is the clutch!
Although his game always matures, in particular his vision of the court in rapidly evolving contexts, it is undeniable his potential to be a bucket in the league. He is super young, so he can take time to find his place at the start, but I would like to see him with the Brooklyn Nets. It should go to the top 10 after the average of 17/4/4 in the first year.
Kon KNUPPEL – Forward, Duke Blue Devils
KNUPPEL is another player that I expect to appear among the 10 best choices of the draft. While his teammate Flagg has made the headlines, Kueppel will be coveted by many teams for his efficiency and refined offensive game.
It is a shooter in the light who is comfortable to play a role – whether as a threat of capture and initiator on the wing, he had an impact. Although his athletics is lacking, he compensates for his 6 -inch frame 7 inches, his high IQ and his consistency. He is a guy from the glue who makes the right games and knows how to get to his place. The 3 -point shot will make him a few minutes, but it is possible for him to collect rebounds and assists at the next level. I see the compositions of Cam Johnson – but I have more confidence in Knunppel as a playmaker than as a more defender.

From the shine of the flagg category to Knueppel sniper shooting, these players could be a factor in fantastic alignments by next season.
