Every year, there are a lot of players who face the difficult decision of returning to college or staying in the draft. This year, that decision is especially challenging. The lack of consensus at the top could end up sending some previously highly rated talents trickling down the draft, leaving mid-level talents who were on the fence at even bigger risk of not getting drafted at all. Here are some of the guys I think have the toughest decisions, and what I think they should do:

Hunter Sallis (Guard, Wake Forest): Sallis isn't getting any younger. While the league has been increasingly open to taking juniors and seniors in the first round in recent years, there's still somewhat of a stigma attached to older players. At Wake, Sallis has unquestionably repaired his draft stock after some disappointing years at Gonzaga. The question is by how much. His three-level scoring and defense pop on tape, but his playmaking is not at the level you'd like for a lead guard. However, there's nothing wrong with him playing most of his minutes at the 2 in the NBA, given his wingspan. Verdict: Stay in the draft

Jaylen Wells (Forward, Washington State): Wells is a name that has been shooting up big boards among diehard draft nerds, but doesn't really feel like a lock to be drafted yet. His game is predicated primarily on shooting, and in looking at tape, it's unclear if he can really offer much else at the next level. It might behoove him to transfer to a bigger program and show scouts there's more to him than an elite catch-and-shoot game. Verdict: Stay in school

Cam Christie (Guard, Minnesota): Much like Wells, Christie is a big-time shooting threat. However, he appears to have a bit more to his game, showing nice flashes of passing, handling and man defense. Finishing is a big weakness of his, but there's reason to believe that other parts of his offensive arsenal can develop, such as shooting off screens or in the mid range. He has very much helped his case at the combine. It might feel risky, but with the combination of how deep next year's class is and the injury risk that comes with going back to school, now might be the best time to strike while the iron's hot. Verdict: Stay in the draft

Garwey Dual (Guard, Providence): Dual was name who came into the draft cycle with a ton of hype, particularly among draft diehards. His unique combination of length on offense and tenacity on defense made him seem like a surefire first rounder. However, he didn't come close to meeting expectations this season. There's a lot to clean up with his game on offense, including his jumper and handle in tight spaces. His season also included an early-season suspension after throwing a punch at a player during a game against Kansas State. His tools are intriguing, and in a weak class, he could be seen as a worthy long-term bet. However, I question whether he has the offensive skills and emotional maturity to warrant a draft pick this year. Verdict: Stay in school

Nique Clifford (G/F, Colorado State): Clifford is another name whose stock has risen a ton in recent weeks. He's a bouncy, yet smart player who can score and facilitate at multiple levels and could potentially guard multiple positions at the next level. The shot isn't all the way there yet, but there's reasons to believe he'll improve there. In a stacked class next season, it might be harder for him to stand out. Verdict: Stay in the draft
