18. Glynn Watson, Nebraska (6-foot, guard, junior)

Nebraska used more ball screen possessions than anyone in the league last season and with Tai Webster’s graduation, Watson should get as many opportunities as he can manage in the pick-and-roll game. Watson was the most efficient player on a Nebraska offense that struggled to score points consistently. He needs to improve as a distributor (a 16.6 percent assist rate isn’t good enough for a point guard) and finishing inside the arc (just 42 percent on twos last season), but he can shoot the three (40 percent) off the catch or the bounce. Expectations might not be high for Nebraska this season, but the pressure is heating up in Lincoln and Watson is the best chance for the Cornhuskers to overachieve this season.

updated with the rest of the list. Bridges is a clear number 1 and is almost a lock as a top 3 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft

Minnesota has a lot of guys on here. I'll be happy when Lindsey leaves Northwestern.
