5. Louisville Cardinals
Coach: Rick Pitino
2016-17 record: 25-9
Notable players definitely gone: Donovan Mitchell, Mangok Mathiang, Tony Hicks, David Levitch, Jaylen Johnson
Notable players also expected to leave: None
Notable players expected to return: Quentin Snider, Deng Adel, Ray Spalding, Anas Mahmoud, V.J. King
Notable newcomers: Malik Williams, Darius Perry, Jordan Nwora, Lance Thomas
Why the Cardinals are here: If Donovan Mitchell had returned, Louisville could've been the preseason No. 1. But he isn't. So Louisville won't. But the Cardinals should still be good enough to make a Final Four. It would be the eighth of Rick Pitino's career.
