Last week, underclassmen had to withdraw from the NBA draft to maintain their collegiate eligibility. Some of the decisions were made just minutes before the deadline. But those choices could reshape the entire collegiate landscape in 2024-25. The return of Caleb Love to Arizona should solidify a top-10 preseason spot for Tommy Lloyd's squad as it enters its first year in the Big 12.
UConn's odds at a three-peat increased with Alex Karaban's return. Also, Mark Pope added former BYU standout Jaxson Robinson. The name, image and likeness era has limited the number of borderline prospects who stay in the draft because top college stars know they can make six-figure sums -- and seven figures in some cases -- if they return to school.
