The men's college basketball regular season begins Nov. 4, and teams are already hitting the practice courts in preparation for the 2024-25 season. In looking ahead to how the college basketball season impacts the 2025 NBA draft, I went on the road for a university tour, ultimately hitting four programs that are sure to impact the college season and the draft.

All eyes will be on Duke's Cooper Flagg, a freshman who is projected to be the No. 1 pick in ESPN's latest mock draft, as well as two top-five projected prospects in Dylan Harper and Airious "Ace" Bailey at Rutgers.
