65. Quincy Ballard - Mississippi State

2024-25 season stats (at Wichita State): 10 ppg and 9.2 rpg

The 6’11 center posted career-highs across the board in his 5th year, including blocking nearly two shots a game. Ballard had nine double-doubles, including 19 points and 15 rebounds versus Oklahoma State. The Bulldogs lost both Michael Nwoko and KeShawn Murphy to the portal already, so landing Ballard was needed to rebuild the frontcourt. 

64. Matas Vokietaitis - Texas 

2024-25 season stats (at FAU): 10.2 ppg and 5.4 rpg

The 7’0 center was the Rookie of the Year in the AAC, starting 20 games for the Owls and shooting 68% from the field. Vokietatis’ best work came in the last month of the season, including his lone double-double (21 points and 12 rebounds), in the conference tournament versus Tulane. He’s the replacement for Kadin Shedrick inside for the Longhorns, set to play in the SEC.

63. Nik Graves - Creighton

2024-25 season stats (at Charlotte): 17.5 ppg and 4.3 rpg

The 6’3 guard led the 49ers in scoring this past season, shooting 42% from the field. Graves was in double figures in 31 of 33 games, including 32 points in a road loss at East Carolina. With Pop Isaacs gone, look for Graves to slide into the two-guard position as a needed offensive weapon for next season.

62. Meechie Johnson - South Carolina

2024-25 season stats (at Ohio State): 9.1 ppg and 2.7 apg

The 6’2 guard only played 10 games this past season and is now back at South Carolina, where he once averaged a career-high 14.1 ppg and 4.1 rpg. There’s no reason not to expect Johnson to come back to similar numbers next season, as the Gamecocks will need another ball-handler to run the offense.

61. Ernest Udeh - Miami

2024-25 season stats (at TCU): 6.6 ppg and 7.5 rpg

The 6’11 big man and former 5-star prospect posted career-high numbers as a junior, including shooting 63% from the field. Udeh had six double-doubles, including 16 points and 15 rebounds at Baylor. He’s set to be the next starting center with the Hurricanes, creating a solid frontcourt duo with another transfer.
