Ace Bailey has arguably the highest ceiling out of the entire 2025 NBA Draft class and if he can clean up some of the flaws in his game at Rutgers, he could really solidify himself as a top 3 pick. I think it’s safe to say that Bailey is the best shot creator in this class even

@camden21cowgill
‘25 Eian Lowe is an absolute DAWG on the defensive end. Unreal lateral quickness with laser quick hands to go along with an eternal motor. His speed carries over to the offensive end as well where his change of pace and burst leave his defenders reeling
@NxtProHoops

‘26 Winston Waite has been a bucket in the first half. Has a strap from outside the arc with range while also flashing a smooth fadeaway game. Shown some promise getting downhill as well. Take note he’s playing up with 17u
