The Field of 68 has put together a list of the top 25 college basketball players since 2000.
The top 5 players were unveiled this morning with former Kentucky star Anthony Davis surprisingly coming in at No. 5.
The No. 1 player on the list is former North Carolina star Tyler Hansbrough (was he really better than Davis?). Jalen Brunson is second, followed by Zach Edey and Carmelo Anthony.
