Nikolas Khamenia (Duke)

One name many may not fully know due to the limited playing time he received as a freshman is Nikolas Khamenia. The forward got lost in the fold, being among many talented pieces this past season, averaging only 5.7 points in 19.8 minutes per game. With those stats, why would Louisville waste its time?

Khamenia simply has potential. His 6-foot-8 frame is desirable to Kelsey and the staff, and his 5-star high school recruiting ranking was not provided out of thin air. This guy is talented and can be a major piece for a team this next season if put into the right spot. Louisville could be the place where Khamenia could excel if given the opportunity.

Khamenia ranks No. 31 overall and No. 3 among small forwards.
