6. Juwan Morgan, Indiana

Senior forward Juwan Morgan will look to go out with a bang in his final college season in 2018-19. After breaking out during his junior season, Morgan returns with the arrival of a strong freshmen class led by Romeo Langford.

Morgan recorded 16.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.2 steals per game through 31 appearances, starting in all but one contest. He put up career-high averages in every statistical category during the 2017-18 season and the window to grow only expands with the addition of Langford.

Morgan put up a career-high 34 points along with 11 rebounds against Notre Dame back on Dec. 16. The Hoosiers won that game, 80-77, in overtime. He went 13-of-17 (76.5 percent) from the floor in that one, showing off his efficiency as a 6-foot-7 forward. He also shot a career-high 57.9 percent from the floor during his junior season.
