Now that March Madness has come and go, I’m sure some of you will turn to the pros and root for your favorite players from your alma mater or favorite college team. Ever wonder how many players from your school are actively playing in the 2016 NBA playoffs?
Out of the 16 remaining teams in the tournament, the total players come out to 243 players currently on active rosters for NBA playoff teams. 40 of the players either entered the draft straight from high school (back when it was still allowed) or came from overseas. So that leaves 203 players that are currently still playing for the trophy that played in college in the U.S. Let’s see if your school produced the most winners in the 2016 NBA Playoffs.
