Romeo Langford, SG, Freshman, Indiana

Warning: this man has BUNNIES.

As a homegrown Hoosier, Romeo Langford will look to elevate his all-around game at Indiana University, which includes everything from a sweet shooting stroke off the dribble to jelly-certified finishes at the rim. At 6-foot-6 and 195 pounds, Langford has the size to match up with almost any guard in college this season.

With all of this athleticism and size, Langford and Collin Sexton could be a great backcourt of the future.

If one, or even both, of the two are able to shoot somewhere in the 35-37 percent range from three-point land, the Cavaliers’ backcourt could be the next great backcourt in the league.
