NBA Draft: Prospects who are trending up heading into the Final Four

Looking at eight NBA Draft prospects that are trending up heading into the NCAA Tournament’s Final Four
Before the NCAA Tournament’s Final 4 gets underway this weekend, let’s take look back at some of the NBA Draft prospects that are trending up after their performances in the Sweet 16 and Elite 8.
We begin with none other than the unanimous No. 1 overall pick.
Zion Williamson, Duke
Some people may wonder how could the number one pick in this year’s NBA Draft be trending up. Well the fact that he has left no doubt (as if there were any to begin with) that he is the best player available is the reason.
Williamson dominated the NCAA tournament to the point where at times it seemed like he was a man playing against teens.
Since Duke season has ended, Williamson likely will make the rounds to pick-up several National Player of the Year awards before declaring for this year’s NBA Draft and signing one of the largest shoe deals for a rookie in sports history.
Williamson has one thing that every NBA team wants and that is star power. He will likely sellout every arena he plays in. He is the future of the NBA and could eventually become the best player in the league. The biggest question remaining about Williamson is: What position should he play?
