A.J. Griffin, F, Duke

As the season has gone on for Duke, A.J. Griffin has stood out more and more. He has climbed up draft boards over the last couple of months and that doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon. Unless something odd happens over the next few weeks.

In fact, in the NCAA Tournament, Griffin will have the opportunity to solidify himself as a top 10 pick and could even climb into the top 5 if he has a good performance and then equates that to an even better pre-draft showing.

So far this season, Griffin is averaging 10 points and four rebounds on an efficient 50 percent shooting from the field and 47 percent shooting from 3-point range.
