OFFICIAL 2018 DRAFTEES FROM VILLANOVA POWER RANKINGS
1. Jalen Brunson
2. Mikal Bridges
3. Donte DiVincenzo
4. Omari Spellman
Two starts for Jalen Brunson, two huge (for him) games, two wins. There’s a trend here that I’ll give you some time to figure out. I’m ignoring the random start he had back in October because it doesn’t fit my narrative, by the way. The key to crafting a good narrative is to straight up ignore all the facts that don’t fit into it neatly. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my 6 years of misleading people with my highlights/descriptions, it’s that.
Also, you can rearrange that power ranking any way you like. The differences in quality between those four players are barely perceptible to my eyes. Normally I’m pretty good at separating players into tiers but in this case I’m pretty sure that they’re all about equal. Brunson has done more in the last two games, and I just made a highlight for him so his antics are fresh in my mind.
