No. 2 – UCLA

You go from Michael Jordan to the all-time leading scorer in the NBA Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. While Jabbar did not average 30 a game like Jordan he did average a very respectable 24. UCLA has produced the most Hall of Famers, and they could add more when a few players call it quits. They have a ridiculous four players that averaged a double-double in their NBA careers.

UCLA is also home to other extremely solid players like Marques Johnson, Bill Walton, Reggie Miller, and Kiki Vandeweghe. But, the reason they are above the Tar Heels is because of their current day players.

Lonzo Ball, Russell Westbrook, Zach Lavine, Jrue Holiday, Kevin Love, and Trevor Ariza all were Bruins during college. Thankfully for the rest of college basketball, they were not all there at the same time. Westbrook an MVP who has averaged a triple-double in a season, Kevin Love an NBA Champion, and Zach Lavine a Dunk Contest Champion. The accolades are endless for the university other than one thing. None of the current day NBA players won the entire tournament while in college.
