6. Koron Davis – Louisville Cardinals

2022-23 season stats (Los Angeles Southwest): 23.8 ppg and 6.7 rpg

Davis is a unique 6’7 playmaker who can play and guard several positions in the backcourt. He proved to be an explosive scorer, including a season-high 42 points in a close win at Sequoias. Davis joins a Louisville roster that had previously lacked backcourt depth, including not having five-star freshman guard, Trentyn Flowers. His versatility and scoring potential give him a shot at being a focal point for Louisville, which needs to find breakout stars.

5. Kasean Pryor – South Florida Bulls

2022-23 season stats (Northwest Florida State): 14.8 ppg and 8.0 rpg

The talented athletic forward was one of the stars of the National JUCO champion, producing 18 points, 11 rebounds, and three blocks in the title game win over John A. Logan. Pryor also had a 30-point effort against Indian Hills as well. He joins a rebuilding South Florida roster, joining Kennesaw State transfer Brandon Stroud in the frontcourt. Pryor has a chance to be a standout player on this AAC roster.

4. Malachi Davis – Arizona State Sun Devils

2022-23 season stats (Tallahassee): 17.1 ppg and 3.3 apg

Davis was a good JUCO performer that had a historical tear in the JUCO Tournament, leading the team to the semifinals as a 12 seed. The scoring guard had five straight 30+ scoring games, including 48 points against Salt Lake in overtime. He joins a new Sun Devil backcourt that lacks proven Pac-12 players outside of Frankie Collins. Even after landing Jose Perez late in the offseason, ASU will need Davis to be an impactful newcomer in the backcourt.
