The Rutgers Scarlet Knights will have two of their players selected early in the 2025 NBA Draft, but while Dylan Harper is almost guaranteed to be chosen inside the first two picks the other freshman star from his team has seen significant dissent recently in mock drafts.

The Kings' own first-rounder, which landed at No. 13, was sent to the Atlanta Hawks as part of the 2022 trade for Kevin Huerter (who was sent to Chicago in February as part of Sacramento's trade for LaVine). Should Sacramento fail to broker a trade, it would only have the 42nd pick in this draft.
