He's the best player in the country and through three days of practice, he has played that way. At times, he's even looked a little bit bored with the elite level of competition. He's known for bringing it the most when the lights are the brightest and the Missouri commitment should show his shooting, size and athleticism on Wednesday night.

The top ranked point guard in the country, Duval has been pretty quiet most of the week. He has had to miss some practice time due to being under the weather and when he's been on the floor, he's not been his usual self. With all day Wednesday to prepare for the game and a national television audience, we've got a feeling that Duval will put on a show.

Arizona, Baylor, Duke, Kansas and Seton Hall are hoping he calls their name sometime in the next month or so.

Through three days of workouts and a scrimmage, the unsigned Bamba has been the most dominant big man in attendance. He's used his size, length and agility to make life absolutely miserable for any big man who has tried to score on him in the paint. If he can get some offense going, he is the type of big who could really entertain.

Duke, Kentucky, Michigan and Texas continue to battle for his services.

A born entertainer on the basketball floor, Sexton's high energy, high-flying style is sure to win him lots of fans. He's spent the entire week going right at anybody in front of him, has finished in traffic and has been shooting the ball very well.

The Alabama commit is the type of guy who can get a crowd on his side and ham it up.

A tough and vocal floor general from Philadelphia, Green isn't the type of surefire one-and-done point guard fans have come to expect taking the floor for Kentucky. But, that shouldn't take anything away from his game.

Green has had a great three days of practice, will share the ball in a setting where players will be trying to get off shots and has personality that should play well on television.

* Fans watching from home are sure to notice just how big this year's crop of McDonald's All-Americans are. Half of the players in the game -- including 2017's No. 2 ranked player DeAndre Ayton -- are listed at 6-foot-8 or taller. The game is full of legitimately big guys at all positions and that should show well on television.

* Two guys that have gone with the flow all week and not tried to force anything are Oregon bound guard Troy Brown and Michigan State bound big man Jaren Jackson of the West. Both of them are sleeper picks to have big games but no matter what they will be out there doing the little things that basketball fans will appreciate.

* Kentucky has the most commitments in the game with four. Of the 24 players selected to the game, six remain undecided.

* Prediction time. After watching the practices we will take the East in a close one, 1114-108.
