The NBA Draft has come and gone, but it’s never too early to look at whats coming down the pipe for next season. Over the last two seasons Notre Dame has sent four players to the NBA. Jerian Grant, Pat Connaughton, Demetrius Jackson and Zach Auguste can all be found on NBA rosters. Can Notre Dame keep this trend going? Well that falls on the shoulders of senior guard V.J. Beachem. Beachem did throw his name into the draft this season, but ultimately decided to return to South Bend.
Coming out of high school as a four-star recruit Beachem has never really played up to expectations.
