From Duke standout Cooper Flagg to Illinois guard Kasparas Jakucionis to Oklahoma playmaker Jeremiah Fears, the top of the 2025 NBA draft is shaping up to be dominated by NCAA men's college basketball stars in what scouts are calling one of the strongest classes in recent years.

With ESPN's Bubble Watch launching next month and March Madness a mere two months away -- all culminating in the Final Four (April 5-7) -- we've had plenty of looks at the elite prospects on our Top 100 Big Board of prospects who are sure to headline June's draft.

And with the top college players now in the thick of their teams' conference play, and the best European prospects in the middle of their seasons, it's time for ESPN draft analysts Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo to update who is rising and falling among the ranking of our top 100 prospects.

Check back between now and June on the players making the best cases to be NBA first-round picks.

Here's how the prospects are tracking through mid-January.
