Conference by conference, I’ll be conducting these mini-guides for you die-hard college basketball fans or NBA Draft enthusiasts. I will rank these teams 1-12 and highlight their potential NBA or professional prospects in the process.
Disclaimer: This doesn’t mean every prospect on here is a lock for the 2021 NBA Draft, but rather if they are on the NBA radar for the next couple years or have high-level overseas professional potential upon graduation.
I believe UCLA, Arizona State and Oregon are all top 25 teams, with Stanford, Arizona and Colorado somewhere in the top 30-45 range. USC and Washington are sleeper tournament teams, and Utah should be competitive as well. Even the bottom feeders should be better than your typical bottom of the Pac teams in a standard year. This conference is deep and I expect there to be anywhere from 5-7 teams in the Big Dance.
