The top 30 prospects in the 2019 NBA Draft

Age: 18

School: Duke

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "Barrett’s consistency and elite scoring ability shouldn’t be overlooked. He’s relentless in how he attacks on offense."

Age: 19

School: Murray State

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "Morant is a highlight waiting to happen with the ball in his hands. He’s lightning quick, keeps the ball on a string as a ball-handler and has explosive leaping ability off of two feet in the lane to posterize poor, unsuspecting souls who dare leap with him at the basket."

Age: 19

School: Duke

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "NBA scouts are looking past Cam Reddish's freshman inefficiency toward his long-term NBA fit and potential, which are fueled by positional tools and shot-making."

Age: 20

School: Texas Tech

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "He’s a shot-making wing at 6-foot-7 with length and terrific basketball IQ. He’s not the most athletic guy in the world, but he has enough to get by and become an NBA starter."

Age: 19

School: Venderbilt

One thing to know: From Woo: "He is a gifted playmaker and shooter who has consistently gotten the most out of ostensibly average athletic tools, but will need time to further his development as a floor general before he can be fully entrusted to run an offense."

Age: 19

School: Indiana

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "A 6'6", 215-pound 2-guard, he's averaging 17.4 points per game on 45.6 percent shooting, and he stands out for his effortless scoring ability off the dribble."

Age: 19

School: UNC

One thing to know: From O'Donnell: "Even as his skill develops, this is a young combo forward with a 7'1 wingspan, strong 220-pound frame and a relentless motor. If he keeps playing well ... he could make his way back into the top-three of this draft."

Age: 18

School: Texas

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "Jaxson Hayes has moved closer to earning the title of the draft's top rim-running big man. He's shooting 74.4 percent and consistently positioning himself for easy baskets by beating defenses down the floor, cutting and finishing lobs."

Age: 21

School: Virginia

One thing to know: From Boone: "In terms of a ready-made skill set, De'Andre Hunter is near the tops in this draft class. His defensive capabilities are plug-and-play, and his 3-point stroke, which was already respectable as a freshman at 38.2 percent, is up to 45.5 percent as a sophomore for Virginia."

Age: 19

School: Kentucky

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "He isn't the most creative scorer or playmaker, but with NBA tools, exciting athleticism, a 40.8 percent three-point mark and a competitive edge, Johnson has a promising foundation and a perceived high floor to build from."

Age: 18

School: n/a — Limoges CSP (France)

One thing to know: From Woo: "There's a real opportunity for Doumbouya to inch upward in the draft if he can sell teams on his long-term potential ... His tools, shooting potential, and long-term role fit as a skilled four-man are all still intriguing, and it's key to remember that he will likely be the youngest player drafted."

Age: 19

School: Oregon

One thing to know: From Boone: "Bol Bol's season was cut short due to injury — a huge concern for a 7-2 prospect ... His unique combination of skills as a 3-point shooting rim protector is too tantalizing to pass on."

Age: 21

School: Gonzaga

One thing to know: From Woo: "Hachimura continues to intrigue teams with his NBA tools and efficient scoring, and the continued progress of his jump shot is a big key to projecting his value going forward."

Age: 18

School: USC

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "A flashy athlete with 6'6" size, Porter stands out for both his physical profile and advanced scoring skill set that includes high-level shot-creation and versatile shot-making ability. With minimal production and clear upside, he'll fall under the boom-or-bust category."

Age: 20

School: Virginia Tech

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "Alexander-Walker has had a breakout sophomore season, averaging 17.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists while shooting at a ridiculous 53.2/41.7/79.7 clip ... He profiles extremely well as a role player working off of a star initiator on the wing."

Age: 19

School: Stanford

One thing to know: From O'Donnell: "Okpala is a 6'9 combo forward who has made serious strides as a sophomore for Stanford. He's hitting 45 percent of his threes on three attempts per game, improved his rebounding, and lowered his turnovers while raising his usage rate."

Age: 19

School: Mizzou

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "Porter is out with a torn ACL suffered in the preseason, but his stock hasn't really taken a hit among NBA executives. He's still seen as an extremely interesting offensive prospect with a terrific feel for the game."

Age: 22

School: Gonzaga

One thing to know: From Boone: "He's averaging 16.7 points and 8.2 rebounds per game while shooting 68.7 percent ... He's a fluid athlete who moves really well for his size...."

Age: 19

School: Duke

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "Though a limited scorer and athlete, he possesses the basketball IQ and toughness to carve out a similar role and career to those of Monte Morris or Fred VanVleet — valued NBA backups...."

Age: 19

School: UNC

One thing to know: From Woo: "White is tracking as a one-and-done caliber prospect, showing improvement as a passer and decision-maker to go on top of his ability as a microwave scorer."

Age: 20

School: Arkansas

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "Shooting 66.7 percent on the season, he's an elite finishing target with strong shot-blocking tools, but his limited scoring repertoire for a non-switch defender are also turnoffs."

Age: 20

School: Kentucky

One thing to know: From Woo: "He's mobile, bouncy, and his rebounding, passing and defensive positioning enable him to impact games even when he’s not scoring."

Age: 20

School: Tennessee

One thing to know: From O'Donnell: "At 6'7, 240 pounds, Williams looks more like a traditional power forward than a new-age NBA one. But his combination of quickness, strength, and feel for the game can't be discounted."

Age: 20

School: Maryland

One thing to know: From Woo: "If you think of him as Diet Clint Capela, running the floor, finishing and protecting the basket and moving his feet effectively in space, his NBA fit is obvious."

Age: 19

School: Arizona State

One thing to know: From Vecenie: "He's a tough, thick-chested guard who might be strongest pound-for-pound player in the class. Defensively, he really gets after it on the ball."

Age: 19

School: n/a — KK Budućnost VOLI (Montenegro)

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "Bitadze's breakout should lead to first-round looks ... A lack of defensive switchability is a drawback, though his finishing, rim protection and shooting potential should be enough."

Age: 18

School: Iowa State

One thing to know: From Boone: "For a guard to stand at 6-4 is one thing, but for a guard to weigh around 240 pounds is another .. His build should allow him to guard at least two positions in the NBA."

Age: 22

School: Villanova

One thing to know: From Boone: "He's developed a trustworthy shot at Villanova, shooting 37.4 percent from 3-point range this season, and he's a big body who wields it well to carve out space for rebounds."

Age: 19

School: Michigan

One thing to know: From Wasserman: "An advanced shot-creator and streaky scorer, he projects as an instant-offense weapon — though his shot selection and playmaking are suspect."
