NOTE FROM 2018-19: From 2002-16, Arizona State signed six top-85 players according to 247Sports/Scout.com. It is very possible ASU could have a three-man lineup on the floor this year alone with top-85 recruits in Remy Martin (77) at the point,  Lugentz Dort (33) and Kimani Lawrence (58) on the wings and Taeshon Cherry (29) and Romello White (81) underneath.
