With the emergence of Ja Morant from seemingly out of nowhere and a meniscus injury, Darius Garland has seemingly been forgotten about. Darius Garland was the No. 14 ranked prospect coming out of high school and the top point guard in the high school graduating class of 2018. He should also be a big 2019 NBA Draft target of the Chicago Bulls.
Indeed, these high school scouting reports do not always translate to the college and professional levels, but this was not at all the case with Darius Garland.
Just five games into his collegiate career, Garland tore a meniscus in a game against Kent State.
