The 2014 McDonald’s All-American Game is Wednesday, showcasing the 24 top fourth-year seniors (no fifth-year prep school students) against each other at the United Center in Chicago. It’s a light—very, very light—preview of next year’s college basketball season, or at least its top newcomers while you wait for the Final Four to being Saturday.

Only one of the 24 players hasn't made his college choice yet: 6'10 center Myles Turner, a native of Euless, Texas, and the No. 4 player (and the No. 2 center) in the class according to 247 Composite's ranking aggregation. He's still considering a handful of schools that includes Kansas and Duke, according to Adam Zagoria at ZagsBlog.
Duke and Kentucky each have four signees in the game, leading the way. Among Duke's four signees is the No. 1 player in the class, 7-foot center Jahlil Okafor of Chicago. Guards Tyus Jones, Grayson Allen and Justise Winslow join him. The four players signed to play for John Calipari at Kentucky next season are guards Tyler Ulis and Devin Booker, swingman Trey Lyles and center Karl-Anthony Towns.
In all, 13 college teams have signees on Wednesday’s two rosters.
