The 2024-25 NBA season is nearly halfway over, while college programs are firmly in conference play. Even then, another draft cycle is underway with a loaded class set to enter the league this summer.
Following what was considered a group of prospects with less upside in the 2024 NBA Draft, the group of players projected to be available in the 2025 NBA Draft is one of the best in recent years. Headlined by Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper at the top, several other potential franchise-altering talents will be available to teams as well.
