With the draft a week away, I’ve decided to put together a list of the top 50 prospects and their corresponding offensive Four Factors numbers.  For good explanations of what those are, go to http://www.basketball-reference.com/about/factors.html (I chose to use true shot percentage instead of effective field goal percentage).  I’ve also included the players’ ranks in each category.  The lowest rank is 42 because I decided to leave out the eight Europeans. 

In the next week, I plan on determining which players are the best fit for each team based on these numbers and the team Four Factors.  All of the information will be on Basketball-Statistics.com.

I used Chad Ford’s Top 100 list to come up with the names.  College players’ numbers were obtained from http://www.kenpom.com.  I calculated the Euro numbers using the data available at http://www.keyhoops.com.
