3. Clifford Omoruyi - Center, Rutgers

Heading into March Madness this past season, Omoruyi led the nation in dunks. Yes, a dunk may only count as two points--the same as a layup or putback--but this is worth mentioning simply because of Omoruyi's dominance around the rim.

Omoruyi can be a true big man in a league that has all but forgotten about the center position of yesteryear. His already impressive post moves are developed to the point that he can potentially become dominant down low for whichever team drafts him, and combining that with his outrageous athleticism, his upside is tremendous.

The San Antonio Spurs have experience drafting and developing centers, which is exactly why this walking highlight film of a prospect is on this list.
