8. Zuby Ejiofor – Kansas Jayhawks

2022-23 season stats: 1.2 ppg and 1.7 rpg

The 6’9 center is a former top-50 prospect who as a freshman, averaged just five minutes a game. Ejiofor’s big game of the past season was eight points on 4/5 shooting in 12 minutes against Indiana off the bench.

He split time with another freshman in Ernest Udeh and once Hunter Dickinson arrived, one of them had to go. But Ejiofor still has plenty of potential and three years of eligibility left as well. Look for the Texas native to have plenty of interest in the coming weeks.

7. Lance Ware – Kentucky Wildcats

2022-23 season stats: 2.0 ppg and 2.0 rpg

Ware is a former top-40 prospect that has been coming off the bench for the past three years at Kentucky, playing both the power forward and center positions. He’s never been much of a scorer but in fairness, has been relegated to the 5th option on offense.

Ware is a New Jersey native and there are plenty of programs in the area that have open space. One is St. John’s, which has reportedly shown major interest as of late. He has two years left of eligibility and could show more offensive capabilities at his new stop.
