5. Ayo Dosunmu (Illinois)

Dosunmu did declare for this year’s upcoming NBA Draft but did not hire an agent, which means he maintains his eligibility to come back next year. And looking at mock drafts it would be wise for Dosunmu to come back to school, as he looks like he could go underrated.

Dosunmu had a very outstanding season averaging 16 points, four rebounds, and three assists while shooting 48% from the field. He struggled from the three-point line this season only shooting 28% from the field, but can hit the three, as he did shoot 35% from there his freshman year.

Dosunmu can play good defense as well, he averaged one steal a game his freshman year, 0.8 this past year. He showed this past year he can pass the ball almost as good as he can put the ball in the bucket. He had a double-double in January against Purdue scoring 18 points and dishing out 11 assists and advanced stats say that Dosunmu is likely to assist on a teammates basket 21.8% of the time. If Dosunmu comes back next year he and Illinois will be one of the top teams in the Big Ten.
