How is Rudy Gay not #1 on that list? That is absolutely ridiculous. I like Rondo but how do they place even Boone ahead of Gay!!! USA needs to watch some more games.

how is rudy gay not at number 1? because right now he's not the number 1 prospect in my book. that subject to change, but right now, imho, rondo has moved into the number 1 prospect position for the nBA draft next year among USA basketball players

LOL LETS GO GAY!

1. rudy gay2. sheldon williams3. josh boonethose are the best on that list, in that order. diaz is more of an atheletic FREAK than anything else, he needs too much seasoning to be rated that high. aldridge has'nt prooven that all that hype about him was'nt just hype. where's steven smith?

sheldon is terrible. i have no clue why people sweat him. he's much worse than sweets.

Haha Briggs, I thought you were saying USA Today listed their top10 prospects, I misread that, didn't know you were saying your Top USA prospects. So to clear that up, I will politely disagree with you about Gay not being number 1.

While I agree with you that Rondo is a top prospect, I disagree with the Iverson comparison, I think he's more of a Wade type with less ability to score on penetration like Wade did for Marquette. Rondo's NCAA tourney showing really bumped him a number of spots in my book. I just think Rudy Gay has; the height, the shooting, and ability to penetrate to the hoop and the ability to be a defensive playmaker. I know you said as of now, but you also said for the 2006 draft so I'm going to put Rudy Gay #1 on this list becuase his sophmore year this coming season is going to be lights out. I would be hopeful that Boone would do the same but I dont know... theres something that really scared me about him last year, it seems like he just didn't care out there and you might be able to attribute that to the typical sophmore slump and I hope you do because Boone has the ability to be a very special NBA power forward.

Just curious Briggs, how come you left out Ronnie Brewer? He's a 6'7 Guard who can exceptionally handle and pass the ball for his size and has an outstanding shot to go along with his above average man on man Defense. I didn't get to see him THAT much since I obviously don't live in Arkansas and Arkansas isn't good enough to warrant a ton of TV time but thats what I get from when I've seen him the 3 or 4 times they've been on TV the last 2 years.. he really kinda reminds me of the way Penny was pre-injury. That explosiveness and the good midrange game on offense.
