We recently took a look at the former Arizona high school basketball players on Division I college basketball rosters this season (there are 60 of them).
Now, it's time to see how they are faring this season.
Several former Arizona high school players are standing out this season.
Four are averaging at least 20 points a game (and 15 are averaging at least 10 points a game).
Two are projected to be Top 5 (or higher?) NBA draft picks in 2018.
