Every single year, a lot of young men suit up to compete in college basketball. Among them, there are a number of standouts that have left an impression on viewers! Even though the game has undeniably changed over the years, the same standards stand for what it takes to be considered a college basketball legend. Let us take a look at the greatest men to have graced the basketball courts of their respective universities. For the sake of clarification, we want you to know that we relied on Sports-Reference.com and the official NCAA record book to come up with this list! Is there an alumnus from your school here?
JJ Redick (Duke, 2002-2006)
We won’t be surprised if you agree that JJ Redick was the greatest pure shooter that the NCAA has ever seen. With his free throw shooting percentage of 91.2 percent, he is the best among those who had at least 600. On top of that, he is also the second-highest three-pointer in the NCAA with a record of 457. During his tenure at Duke, he made it to the All-ACC selection each year. On top of that, he made school history as the all-time leading scorer. It is shocking to hear that he did not win a title during his career.
