Dylan Harper Viewed By NBA Teams As Consensus Top-2 Pick In 2025 NBA Draft 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Jan 9, 2025 3:53 pm

Dylan Harper has had a strong start to his freshman season at Rutgers and "has established himself among front offices as a consensus top-two pick at this stage," reports Jeremy Woo of ESPN. Harper is even a candidate to be selected at No. 1 even though Cooper Flagg remains the favorite.


Harper is averaging 21.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists. Harper is shooting 36 percent on almost five three-point attempts per game.


Rutgers, however, could miss out on the NCAA tournament as they are just 7-6 at this point in the season. Behind Harper on many mocks are teammate Ace Bailey as well as VJ Edgecombe of Baylor and Kasparas Jakucionis of Illinois.

Easily, but his teammate has a whole lot of upside and could end up the best out of all 3 too…

Two top 3 picks on the team but they’re 7-6 and possibly missing the tournament? Can someone make it make sense for me?

Just watch a game, no reason to run to fake outrage. They’re on a bad team thats outmanned at most positions, and it’s not the first time a team with good super young prospects wasn’t that good.

Also are you trying to argue those guys shouldn’t be too prospects?
