There’s a deep set of high-end guard prospects in the upcoming NBA draft.

Rutgers point guard Dylan Harper is positioned to be the first name called after projected No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg. Here’s a look at the guards entering Wednesday’s first round:

Dylan Harper, Rutgers

STRENGTHS>> The 6-foot-5, 213-pound son of former NBA guard Ron Harper has size at the point and two-way potential. The lefty thrived as a scorer (19.4 points) with athleticism to finish at the rim, score on stepbacks and hit catch-and-shoot looks. Notably, he went for 36 points in an overtime win against Notre Dame, then 37 more a day later in a loss to then-No. 9 Alabama during the Players Era Festival in November.

CONCERNS>> He shot 33.3% on 3-pointers while launching 5.2 per game, though shot selection against contested looks didn’t always help. There’s also the optics of being the NBA-bound floor leader on a team that finished with a losing record despite featuring a second one-and-done talent in forward Ace Bailey.

VJ Edgecombe, Baylor

STRENGTHS>> Explosive athleticism stands out at both ends, notably as an above-the-rim finisher who creates highlight-reel moments. The 6-4, 193-pound Edgecombe finished in the combine’s top 10 with a 38.5-inch max vertical leap, had seven games with at least three made 3s and 11 games with three-plus steals.

“I think for freshmen, the universal (issue) is just being able to sustain the level of intensity required as long as they’re on the court,” Baylor coach Scott Drew said recently. “The size, length, speed is one thing, but just to be able to compete each and every play, it’s a different level. And VJ has that.”

CONCERNS>> Edgecombe shot just 34% on 3s, though Drew said Edgecombe could see gains after refining his shot mechanics.

Tre Johnson, Texas

STRENGTHS>> The 6-5, 190-pound Johnson averaged 19.9 points to lead all Division I freshmen, as well as being the Southeastern Conference’s overall scoring leader. The highlight was Johnson going for 39 points against Arkansas in February to break Kevin Durant’s Longhorns freshman single-game record.

He thrived off screens (shot 52.1% in those scenarios to rate in the 91st percentile in Synergy) and shot 39.7% from 3-point range.

CONCERNS>> The 19-year-old could use some bulk on a slender frame to help him hold up against bigger, stronger opponents at both ends.

Jeremiah Fears, Okla.

STRENGTHS>> The combo guard pressures defenders with his ball-handling and space creation, averaging 17.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.1 assists. He got to the line 6.3 times per game and ranked tied for 11th among all Division I players by making 183 free throws.

Fears also had a knack for clutch plays, including a four-point play to beat a ranked Michigan team along with a tough late scoring drive for the lead in the SEC Tournament loss to Kentucky.

CONCERNS>> He needs to get stronger (6-3, 180) and improve his outside shot. He made 28.4% of his 3s, including nine games of going 0 for 3 or worse.

Kasparas Jakucionis, Illinois

STRENGTHS>> Jakucionis brings size (6-5, 205) and an all-around floor game to the perimeter. He averaged 15 points, 5.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists with four double-digit rebounding games and eight games with at least seven assists.

CONCERNS>> Jakucionis shot just 31.8% on 3s, including 5 of 22 (22.7%) in four bright-spotlight games during the Big Ten and NCAA tournaments. He averaged 3.7 turnovers — sixth-most in Division I, most among freshmen — and had 13 games with at least five turnovers.
