Oklahoma State forward Moussa Cisse Osu Vs Baylor /

11. Ernest Udeh Jr. – Kansas Jayhawks

2022-23 season stats: 2.6 ppg and 1.8 rpg

Udeh is a former five-star prospect and High School McDonald’s All-American that transferred out once Hunter Dickinson arrived. He only averaged eight minutes a game off the bench and didn’t have many big performances due to limited time but did make 76% of his shots overall. Wherever he goes, look for Udeh to be viewed as a breakout candidate.

10. Connor Vanover – Oral Roberts Golden Eagles

2022-23 season stats: 12.7 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 3.2 bpg

The 7’3 center had his best year yet at Oral Roberts, winning Summit League Defensive Player of the Year and ranking second in NCAA Basketball in blocks, including two games of eight blocks. Vanover went for 23 points and 10 rebounds against Omaha and even made 32% of his three-point attempts.

9. Moussa Cisse – Oklahoma State Cowboys

2022-23 season stats: 6.8 ppg, 8.0 rpg, 1.9 bpg

Cisse is another former Conference Defensive Player of the Year, this time at the Big 12 level two years ago. The 6’10 big man has been the anchor of a good defense at OK State and produced six double-doubles as well, including 10 points and 13 rebounds vs Youngstown State in the NIT. He’s also a two-time transfer so Cisse needs a waiver to be able to play next season.
