Top 10 SEC basketball players for the 2024-25 season
7. Tre Johnson, G, Texas
The SEC will feature several freshmen who could make an immediate impact in 2024-25, headlined by Johnson, Derrion Reid, Asa Newell and Boogie Fland. Johnson was the highest-rated prospect of the group and could be the favorite for SEC Freshman of the Year honors after already being named third-team all-conference in the preseason. The 6-foot-6, 190-pound guard has elite scoring ability as he put up over 2,500 points during his prep career at Lake Highlands and Link Academy. The former Texas Mr. Basketball and McDonald鈥檚 All-American averaged 15.5 points in his senior season and is a sharpshooter from deep as he knocked down 3-point shots at a 40% clip. Johnson has a bright future and should be a valuable piece for Rodney Terry at Texas alongside veterans like Arthur Kaluma and Tramon Mark.
