Last year Andrew Wiggins gave everybody a frantic last minute dash to sort themselves for the 2013-14 NCAA season. He left it till mid-May to tell the world where he would play, which was Kansas, and it caused havoc. Wiggins himself is getting ready to be drafted in the 2014 NBA Draft, and there's a good chance he will be the No.1 pick, but has his replacement on the college scene arrived before he's even left? Enter Myles Turner.

Myles Turner is a 7-foot center, and he's considered one of the elite talents entering NCAA basketball this season, and he's the only one that hasn't confirmed his college future yet. He effectively is a 'free agent' and one that every team wants and needs. Will he be rushed to make his decision? Apparently not, as he explains "I'm going to let it come to me when it comes," He then went on to suggest it would be sometime in mid to late April that he would make, and then reveal his decision.

With Andrew Wiggins about to leave, it appears he's been replaced already. The Wiggins and Turner drama has caused concern for many. Firstly, there's a big spectacle on which college they will attend, and then, As Wiggins is proving now, most stars adopt the one-and-done college approaching, leaving for the NBA as soon as possible. What this will mean is both Wiggins and Turner (if he carries on in Wiggins' footsteps) will of been surrounded with non-stop "Will he, won't he?" drama, and although it's exiting for the fans, it's not good for the sport.

Has Wiggins handled things the correct way, and is Turner the 'Next big thing'?
