It’s finally time to bring out your college bracket boards as March Madness is right around the corner.

March 14th is the magical day in which 68 teams will compete for the chance to advance further and further in the world’s most intense basketball tournament. This gives fans worldwide the chance to see future stars display their skills on arguably the biggest stage in basketball.

This stage has made household names out of hoopers for decades, whether it be Stephen Curry’s magical Cinderella run with unknown Davidson, Carmelo Anthony’s dominating display at Syracuse, or Michael Jordan hitting the game winning jumper as a nineteen year old freshman in the 1982 National Championship game for North Carolina.

This year’s legends have yet to reveal themselves, but it’s only a matter of time as with every game, the spotlight gets brighter and brighter for each program.

  5. North Carolina’s Justin Jackson
  6. Duke’s Grayson Allen

Each of these candidates has shown sparks of greatness on the court this season and we’re positive that one, if not all of them, will contribute greatly to their team’s success in this year’s tournament.

Keep a lookout, because it’s quite possible that you may be hearing about these boys for years to come.
