The Class of 2015

Check out the ESPN 25 Class of 2015 Rankings

Karl Towns Jr. is ranked #1 and is with the senior Dominican Republic national team that is preparing for the London Olympics qualifying tournament. He is under Kentucky's recruiting wizard, John Calipari.

Lots of good bigman prospect at the 2015 ranks but KT Jr. is tops.

Mickey Mitchell is fun to watch. Rumor is that he may ultimately choose to play football instead of basketball as he is a top rated Quarterback in the nation as well.

Diamond Stone. Is a diamond in the rough and has stone solid fundamentals.

[CKR13]

Malik Newman. He's a shooting guard that can shoot. He also has handles that reminds you of a young Tyreke Evans. His dribble-drive-step back-swish is most impressive.

Marcus LoVett Jr. hate it or love it he'll find creative ways to impact the game. A freshman who averaged 33 a game on his HS team.

You seriously just can't compare players from elsewhere to players who come out of Chester. I know many of you have never heard of Chester let alone been there but they produce some of the most talented, hardest players in the country year in and year out. Tyreke got his game playing pick up against grown men on Chester's courts.

Edit: Thought you meant possible draft class, as the 2014 thread mentioned guys like Wiggins and Vonleh.

I did single out handles but let's drop that. Last time I saw Malik play was on the internet stream with Team USA U17 against Australia in the finals. Good game from him.

How would you assess his growth from 2012?
