This week the 2014 NBA Draft class has impressed so much because a number of different players have stepped up and had memorable performances. The leader of the new school, Andrew Wiggins led the way for the class as he played awesome once again during the week scoring in double figures in each game.

Also what was great to see this week was the way that Nikola Mirotic has played off of the bench with the injuries to Derrick Rose, and Jimmy Butler.

Mirotic is starting to play his best basketball of the season and thankfully for the Bulls it couldn’t come at a better time. What’s also been great to see is how great the overall class has played during this last Month or two of basketball.

This draft class is extremely deep and with evidence of players such as Utah’s Elijah Millsap and Joe Ingles, Miami’s Tyler Johnson and Philadelphia’s Jakarr Sampson they are all rookies who make our rankings, but what they all have in common is that none of them were drafted. This draft class is going to make noise in the league for a long time.

With that being said, let’s begin with our rankings.
