 This is based off of who you think will be the best in the NBA when they get there and who has the most potential. For instance, Julius Randle might be better right now, but I see Andrew Wiggins being better when he’s eligible to be drafted, so he goes ahead.

1. Jabari Parker

2. Andrew Wiggins

3. Shabazz Muhammad

4. Anthony Davis (Needs to show more offensively than he has been. If he does, he could shoot to the top)

5. Nerlens Noel

6. Julius Randle

7. Michael Kidd-Gichrist

8. Noah Venloh

9. Wayne Seldon

10. Tyus Jones

11. Jahlil Okafor

12. Andre Drummond

13. Thomas Robinson

14. Aaron Gordon

15. Steven Adams

16. Andrew Harrison

17. Aaron Harrison

18. Anthony Barber (Really good, but hasn’t blown up in the rankings yet)

19. Kyle Anderson

20. Kaleb Tarczewski

A lot of people didn’t like my last list, but I urge you to read the criteria before pointing out all the flaws. This is a balance of potenital and projected skills for when they are drafted, coupled with current talent.

 I also don’t have Barnes on here because his lack of ability to create his own shot. I think he is tremendously skilled, but that hurts his potenital a lot, and since he isn;t a lock down defender or good rebounder…

[Bmore_DCParticipant]

why do you have Jabari Parker over Shabazz ???

[DurantsWingspan]

Many believe Jabari to be better than Shabazz now AND hes a year younger. Thats why. Its not that crazy, actually I believe it is what most scouts think.

[DipoTimeParticipant]

 Why isn’t barnes a good rebounder? Just bc he doesn’t average 7 a game? Zeller and henson combined for almost 20 a game and Barnes plays on the perimeter how many rebounds do you expect him to get? When he goes after a board he goes hard and he uses his length and athleticism well I think so I don’t see how he isn’t a good rebounder.

Jabari Parker #1 overall looks crazy to me.

[DurantsWingspan]

To tell when they are this age unless you have someone like a LeBron. But who I like in no particular order is…

Anthony Davis

Shabazz Muhammad

Jabari Parker

Andrew Wiggins

KeJuan Johnson

 

 

Some others to watch….

Emmanuel Mudiay, Stephen Zimmerman, Julius Randle, Dakari Johnson

Theo Pinson

People are sleeping on Jabari somehow even though he’s known nationwide. Dude is 6’8(and growing) 225lbs and can literally play every positoin. Gonna be special talent..

I know Drummond has underwhelmed, but he’s leaps and bounds better than Nerlens Noel, and his ceiling is much higher too.

The problem with doing this sort of list is how much things change once players reach the college level, if you did this list a year ago Drummond would likely have been 1st on many people’s lists, with Davis, Parker and probably Muhammed right behind him.

Of all the prospects listed I’m still rolling with Drummond to have the best career of the lot.

I’ve only watched jabari play once , and I wasn’t really impressed , so maybe I should try to check out some more of him

[MalcolmxParticipant]

 Jabari is two years younger actually he was born in 95 and muhammad was born in 93 he probably reclassied in a earlier grade

[Bmore_DCParticipant]

 i never said it was crazy…i was just asking why

[JoeWolf1]

 Can’t get too crazy with the High Schoolers, many top recruits drop down after struggling to make the jump to college ball, let alone the NBA.  Who would have though 2 years ago Perry Jones would be considered late lotto after his Sophomore season or Andre Drummond would be flirting with falling out of the top 5?  

The fact 8 of your top 10 are high schoolers…not buying it.

[chocboywndrParticipant]

 I think it Wiggins, Davis, Parker, Shabazz.

If I had to pick one though it would be Wiggins as long as he has work ethic sky is the limit.
