Franz is getting underrated but its a tough list to crack. But yeah Franz and Banchero could easily crack this list next year although I'm not sure who the 3rd guy is your talking about.
Wendell was only 22 last season and averaged 15 PPG and 10.5 RPG in limited minutes.

No arguments with any of the choices, however, I want to add my you-read-it-here-first selection: Precious Achiuwa

A lot of hypothetical projecting on players in these posts…..common aspect of the top of the list though is being a true first scoring option that is excellent at creating his own shot i dont see that in about half the list. Mobley could possibly get away with not being that if he developed a great mid game range similar to KG and while Barnes is looking like the best prospect of the bunch hee’a not going to be a #1 either but prob the perfect second. A healthy Zion, maybe Green as a darkhorse could possibly be a #1 on a title team…..
