Wiggins and the high school hype machine

2/27/2014

I have a new article up on B/R about Andrew Wiggins, and why we should stop trusting high school scouting reports when it comes to NBA superstar potential. I will admit I swooned over Wiggins like everybody else last August -there was so much positive hype surrounding his potential I just kind of assumed Wiggins would inevitably be the #1 prospect in the 2014 NBA Draft.

I was wrong, and I don't plan on making assumptions like that about high school players again, especially if they are guards or swingmen. If you want to have some perverse fun, check out RSCI's ranking of the best high school prospects every year since 1998, via DraftExpress.
