Here are the top upcoming prospects from Slovakia.

I thought it'd be more interesting to rank them, although my rankings should be taken with a few grains of salt. The 2020 draft class is the only class where I've watched every player, the other classes are mostly based on stats, reputation and national team representation.

I will update the rankings after the draft, midterm and after next season. Normally the list will consist of the three upcoming drafts, but because this year's draft was postponed, there's currently four draft classes listed.
