With the official start of practice next month, UMHoops and Inside the Hall have partnered to bring you our annual preseason breakdown of the top players in the Big Ten. This year, the list has been expanded after the addition of four programs to the conference.
The series is broken into seven parts, with one post each weekday through Friday, August 30. Our first installment looking at players 40-31 for the 2024-25 season is available below:
40. William Kyle III, UCLA (6-foot-9, forward, junior)
Why he could outperform this ranking: Kyle arrives in Westwood with major defensive accolades.
