A Look Back at Ohio State's 5 Highest-Rated Basketball Signees of the Past 10 Years

With five-star point guard DJ Carton's commitment on Saturday afternoon, the Buckeyes now have two top-30 commits for the first time since they signed D'Angelo Russell and Keita Bates-Diop in the 2014 class.

Carton joined already-committed four-star forward Alonzo Gaffney, giving Ohio State the top recruiting class in the Big Ten and the fourth-best class in the nation. Both players are enormously talented, and it seems like it's been quite a while since the Buckeyes have brought in players of this caliber.

With these two recent additions, we look back at Ohio State's top-five highest-rated basketball recruits of the past 10 years and get an idea of where Carton and Gaffney stack up as of now.
