4. Marvin Bagley, F/C, Duke

Even though everything inside me makes me second-guess any prospect coming out of Duke (thanks Justise Winslow, Jahlil Okafor), I still have to be Marvin Bagley in the top 4. When he’s on the floor he downright dominates.

During his freshman season at Duke, Bagley averaged 21 points and 11 rebounds per game. He shot 61 percent from the field, and showed his ability to hit the outside shot by shooting nearly at a 40 percent clip. He shot nearly two 3’s per game.

Bagley has some work to do on the defensive end, but the talent is there. He should be a top 5 pick.
