4 NBA Draft Prospects That Are Flying Criminally Under the Radar

We've all heard about the Zions, the Ja Morants, and the RJ Barretts of this year's NBA Draft class. This year's crop of lottery-bound prospects may be one of the most impressive in recent memory, but what truly makes this class special are the players who don't get all the attention. Here are some players who deserve a lot more attention than they're getting.

Louis King | SF | Oregon

King is a natural athlete whose explosiveness on the floor is always on display. Only a freshman, the New Jersey native managed to average 15 points and 5.3 rebounds in a tick under 30 minutes per game -- this coming after a knee surgery that kept him off the floor in the spring and summer. The Oregon forward played his best basketball as the season progressed, a testament to not only his tenacity to bounce back from injury but also to his sky-high potential.

Coby White | PG/SG | North Carolina

Listen, White is going to be a lottery pick. But with all the attention going to Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett, it seems people are forgetting about the point guard who played just down the road. Coby White is a speedy, score-first point guard who can consistently find his way through bigger bodies and get to the rim. His height allows him to see over the defense and pick out the right pass, and his quick release makes him a nightmare to defend.

Justin Wright-Foreman | PG | Hofstra

I was seriously rooting for Hofstra to win the CAA, just so the nation could be introduced to Justin Wright-Foreman. His game is largely centered around scoring the basketball, but boy, can he do it -- he averaged over 27 points per game as a senior, second behind only Chris Clemons of Campbell, and shot 42.5 percent from beyond the arc. He's a one-dimensional player, but he's one of the best scorers in the class -- and a sharpshooting, prolific scorer is something that every team can open a roster spot for.

Bol Bol | C | Oregon

Bol Bol was the talk of the town when he committed to Oregon, but since then, he's been overshadowed by the likes of Williamson and Morant, the relative irrelevance of Pac-12 basketball, and a season-ending injury. Standing 7-foot-3, Bol immediately becomes one of the tallest players in the entire NBA, but what separates him from the pack is his quickness and mobility paired with his size. The NBA sees tall guys get drafted all the time -- it almost never sees tall guys with the skill-set of Bol.
