In this episode of the Locked On NBA Big Board podcast, Rafael and James Barlowe break down five prospects whose draft stock is soaring as they head into their respective conference tournaments. The Barlowe brothers start with Michigan State freshman Jase Richardson, who has turned heads with his recent play. They then dive into Florida big man Alex Condon, who Rafael believes is the fastest-rising prospect in the country. The discussion shifts to VJ Edgecombe, who has worked his way back into his preseason projected draft range after an up-and-down start. Rounding out the episode, the brothers analyze two Texas Tech standouts—J.T. Toppin, who is having a monster sophomore season for the Red Raiders, and Christian Anderson, a quietly impactful freshman earning valuable minutes on a top-10 team. With conference tournaments approaching, these prospects are building serious NBA draft momentum.
