5. Robert Williams, PF/C, Texas A&M
Age: 19 (October 17, 1997)
Size: 6-foot-9, 237 pounds
As a raw freshman at Texas A&M, Williams' blend of athleticism and length (7-foot-4 wingspan) allowed him to block 2.5 shots in just 25.8 minutes per game. That defensive potential alone had him as a projected lottery pick, but then he started showing an improved offensive game down the stretch, as he averaged 14.5 points on 53.6 percent shooting and 4.0 offensive rebounds over his last 10 games (which included a monster 20-and-13 performance against Kentucky) and had his draft stock soaring.
Williams ultimately decided to stay for his sophomore year, and if he continues to progress offensively, he's going to be a highly sought-after prospect. (Getty)
