These are the top prospects in the EAST region of the NCAA tournament bracket. A couple of points to mention:
1.) There are some good college players who may not be listed because of one reason or another that I do not consider a PRO-prospect.
2.) By the time a player is a senior they lose the benefit of the doubt gained from being a top-100 high school recruit if they have not been productive. 3.) Since the primary focus of this site is to gauge professional prospects, there are players listed here (particularly underclassmen) who either do not yet contribute to their team’s rotation, are injured, or are currently ineligible.
