The University of Wisconsin commit has had an explosive year with the USNDP and is projected to go anywhere from fourth overall to tenth. His talent and numbers are undeniable and despite his College commitment - if he is available when the Ducks select 9th - he would be a steal and worth waiting for when done with his tertiary study. The Illinois native has had a rough draft year after missing 22 games with injury but he bounced back to finish behind Hughes and Zegras on the team in points per game.
