As the NCAA season approaches, we’ve analyzed potential rosters from every college to provide insight into whom to watch in the upcoming season. Check out our list of the top prospects for the 2024/25 NCAA basketball season.
10. R.J. Davis
Davis is set to be a veteran presence in the NCAA for the 2024/25 season, having received eligibility due to the disruptions of the 2020/21 season. He has been a reliable performer and is expected to be a frequent favorite among college basketball fans.
9. Johni Broome
Broome is evolving into a formidable 3-point shooter, generating excitement every time he touches the ball. Look for him to make significant strides this season, as he eyes the draft at the age of 22.
8. Hunter Sallis
Sallis is an intriguing prospect who has transferred from Gonzaga to Wake Forest, hoping that being a standout in a smaller program will raise his profile. With a 3-point shooting percentage over 50%, he boasts undeniable talent.
7. Dylan Harper
Harper, a freshman at Rutgers, is already hailed as a five-star recruit despite being new to the NCAA. Coming from a basketball-oriented family, with both his father and older brother having played in the NBA and his mother serving as an assistant coach in high school, he has the pedigree for success.
6. Mark Sears
Sears is eager to make this season a breakout year after declaring for the draft last season but not being selected. He finds himself in a crucial position to make a strong case for the NBA.
5. Shaqir O’Neal
What more needs to be said about this choice than that he is the son of Shaquille O’Neal? Much like Bronny James last season, Shaqir will be striving to make a name for himself outside his father’s legendary shadow.
4. Hunter Dickinson
Dickinson has committed to play for the Kansas Jayhawks in the 2024/25 season. Like others on our list, he hopes to make a significant impact this year that will propel him into the draft. Standing at 7’2″, he possesses the physical attributes needed to succeed.
3. Caleb Love
Many anticipated Love would enter the 2024 NBA draft and turn pro. However, in May, he surprised everyone by opting to stay in college. Expect a standout season from him, potentially leading to a draft opportunity next summer.
2. Hansel Enmanuel
Enmanuel is undoubtedly the most captivating player on this list. After losing an arm due to a childhood accident, he has persevered and earned minutes in college games through dedication and hard work. While an NBA future may be unlikely, his performances are always exciting.
1. Cooper Flagg
Flagg will celebrate his 18th birthday just as the NCAA season kicks off, but he already carries more hype than any other player in the league. Following an impressive performance in a scrimmage against Team USA during Olympic preparations, many anticipate that this young talent will make just a single season in college before moving on.
