Wiseman will be the #1 pick. NBA front offices draft based on potential. He's big and he can play, and as of now, he's going to be healthy.
However, this whole senario is awful for college basketball and really the sport of basketball. It's time for the NBA to once again allow high schoolers to go straight to the league. The tail is wagging the dog these days, and the NBA has no backbone in creating rules that protect the player more than the product.
Many of these kids come from AAU programs and are prima donnas and just drain the life out of college basketball anyway. I'd like to see college basketball get back to producing 3 and 4 year players and getting guys ready for life after sports. Many of these guys think they are going to be NBA, and they end up G-league lifers or overseas.
