5 Colleges that produce the best NBA players

#2 UCLA

Russell Westbrook is among the notable UCLA alumni currently starring in the NBA

The Bruins are the most successful team in the history of March Madness with 11 titles, so it is no surprise that its former players have flooded the NBA over the last five decades. The legendary Kareem Abdul-Jabbar spent multiple years at UCLA, and fellow Lakers hero Gail Goodrich also spent four years at the college.

While UCLA has had less success on the court in recent years, their legacy of producing top-class NBA players has continued. In the last decade, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, Zach LaVine, Jrue Holiday and Lonzo Ball have all been selected as first round picks, and Westbrook went on to win the 2017 MVP award.

There was even a time in 2007 when Darren Collison, Luc Mbah a Moute, Love, and Westbrook were playing on the same Bruins team, and few college teams have ever assembled a team with so much talent.
