The journey from high school stardom to professional sports is a narrative filled with anticipation, pressure, and occasionally the fulfillment of great promise. Both basketball and football have a long tradition of talented & polarizing No.1 high school recruits, but how does this translate into their professional careers? In short; it translates pretty well for the most part. The journey from being a high school prodigy to a professional athlete however, is fraught with diverse outcomes, influenced by talent, opportunity, and the specific demands of each sport. One thing does not lead to another. Nothing is ever set in stone.

If people say "The Draft" isn't an exact science, I wonder what they would say about trying to predict No.1 picks 5-years into the future. If that wasn't bad enough, we're gonna try and prognosticate the future No.1 picks for all five North American sports leagues (NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB, WNBA). Better strap on your seatbelts, cuz this is about to be a bumpy ride. Lord help us! 🙏
