Several Big Ten teams have multiple holes to fill for 2019-20 (and some are still trying to do so). These 10 freshmen have the best opportunity to be early difference makers:
1. D.J. Carton, Ohio State
Carton will immediately take the reins of the Buckeyes' offense after averaging 24.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 6.1 assists as a four-star point guard at Bettendorf (Iowa).
2. E.J. Liddell, Ohio State
The one thing the Buckeyes' have needed the last two years is someone to play next to Kaleb Wesson up front. They found him in Liddell, a two-time N-G Player of the Year.
