College basketball rankings are always a topic of discussion among basketball enthusiasts, and the latest Top 25 And 1 rankings have seen a significant move due to Bronny James’ commitment to USC.
Bronny James, the son of NBA superstar LeBron James, is a five-star recruit from Sierra Canyon High School in California. He recently announced his commitment to USC, which has raised the Trojans’ prospects for the upcoming college basketball season.
The USC Trojans had a solid record of 25-8 last season and reached the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament. However, they lost some of their key players to the NBA draft, including Evan Mobley and Tahj Eaddy. Bronny James’ commitment has filled the void as he brings in a lot of talent and potential to the team.
The latest Top 25 And 1 rankings have placed USC at the No. 15 spot, up from their previous rank of No. 22. The rankings are based on the opinions of CBS Sports college basketball experts, who consider a team’s performance from the previous season as well as their potential for the upcoming season.
Bronny James is not the only reason for USC’s rise in the rankings. The Trojans have also managed to retain some of their key players from the previous season, including Isaiah Mobley, another highly rated recruit, Max Agbonkpolo and Ethan Anderson.
USC is set to have a formidable team this season with their mix of experienced players and talented freshmen. Bronny James’ addition to the team adds more depth and versatility to the Trojans’ roster, making them a team to watch out for in the upcoming season.
The Top 25 And 1 rankings have also seen some other notable movements, with Gonzaga retaining their top spot and UCLA moving up to the No. 2 position. Kansas, Texas, and Baylor round out the top five positions.
As the college basketball season approaches, the rankings are sure to undergo further changes as teams start their campaigns and prove their mettle on the court. However, one thing is for sure, with Bronny James’ commitment to USC, the Trojans have become a team to watch out for this season.
