2013 NBA Draft - Best Non Freshman Prospects

The following list only includes players returning to school, so you won't find Freshman like Nerlens Noel or Isaiah Austin. The final column, labeled "POA", is the player's 2011-2012 NCAA Points Over Average total. The statistic is similar to John Hollinger's PER. You will likely notice that players aren't ordered by POA; it was used as a guide but I made some subjective decisions on certain players.

One final note: I do not think this is the order these players will be taken nor is it the order I would take them. For example, Adonis Thomas is an amazing talent who if he develops could be a top 10 pick. If I were an NBA GM, I would certainly consider taking him right not with a lottery pick, despite what POA is showing. Think of the list as one part production plus one part scouting plus one part risk aversion.
