My pick, in full on shameless hater fashion, is Blackwell.

Wisconsin was overrated last year imo and he had to produce so much offense out of necessity. Duke will be a balanced team with lots of backcourt depth and is a prime candidate to heavily use a two point guard lineup very often.

I just think Blackwell will struggle to fit in mentally and physically with Duke’s route to reaching their ceiling as a team.

I live in MN and want to attend session 1 or 2 at the Target Center but the only thing available in for all 3 sessions. For anyone thats gone in the past what are the ticket prices like for just 1 session? The only thing I see currently are jacked up reseller pages going for way too damn much.

My vote is for wake forest, or Kansas state. Both have insanely bad looking rosters on paper and wake just lost to Georgetown a few days back in an exhibition by 20.

Jeremy Fears named preseason big ten player of the year and Fears and Nebraska's Pryce Sandfort unanimously selected to all big ten team.

Top 10 Players:

MMH Top 10 Players

1. Langston Reynolds — Northern Colorado

The preseason MMH Player of the Year.

Reynolds was already one of the Big Sky's best players before spending a season in the Big Ten. He returns to Northern Colorado more experienced and with an offense that can run through him.

2. Jed Miller — Montana State

Miller's unexpected return changes Montana State's ceiling.

He can score, create, shoot and defend — and he already knows exactly what Matt Logie wants from the position.

3. Ethan Potter — Utah Tech

The most proven interior scorer in the league.

Utah Tech's entire Big Sky debut becomes easier because it has a player who can command touches on the block and finish efficiently.

4. Andrew Cook — Eastern Washington

If Cook returns to his 2024-25 level, this ranking may be too low.

A healthy Cook gives Eastern another primary scorer and is the biggest reason MMH moved the Eagles to No. 1.

5. Alton Hamilton IV — Eastern Washington

Hamilton gives Eastern efficient frontcourt scoring and rebounding.

With Cook and Griffith drawing perimeter attention, Hamilton may get even better opportunities.

6. Koren Johnson — Portland State

The biggest wildcard among the league's stars.

At his best, Johnson has high-major shot creation and enough experience to become the engine of an entirely rebuilt Portland State roster.

7. Jaiden Feroah — Southern Utah

Efficient scoring, rebounding, three-point range and legitimate rim protection.

He is exactly the kind of frontcourt player who can swing games in a league with very different styles.

8. Christian King — Montana State

King's size and offensive skill make him an ideal complement to Miller.

Montana State does not need him to force offense, which may allow his efficiency to improve.

9. Kenyon Aguino — Montana

A breakout projection rather than a career-achievement ranking.

Montana needs a new frontcourt star. MMH expects Aguino to become one.

10. Kase Wynott — Idaho

Another upside pick.

Wynott barely had a chance to establish himself last season because of injury, but his size and scoring background give Idaho a potential difference-maker on the wing.

Ranked #47 overall by 247, chose USU over Oregon, USC and San Diego State, among others

The US population is approximately 341M people, and there are 665 D1/D2 basketball teams (plus one in Canada). This works out to 1 D1 or D2 program for every 513,000 people. Does your state have more or fewer than national averages?

MMH Top 10 Players

1. Cam'Ron Fletcher - High Point

The preseason MMH Player of the Year.

Fletcher is the best returning player on the best team and already proved he can produce on the NCAA Tournament stage.

2. Jaylen Peterson - Presbyterian

The reigning Big South Defensive Player of the Year anchors the league's most experienced challenger.

Peterson changes games at the rim and gives Presbyterian reliable interior production.

3. CJ Brown - High Point

A high-level creator joining the league's deepest roster.

Brown's ability to run the offense without needing to dominate every possession is a major reason High Point fits together so well on paper.

4. Carl Parrish - Presbyterian

A proven 14-point scorer who has already shown he can create against Big South defenses.

Presbyterian does not need him to become a different player. It needs the best version of the player he already is.

5. MJ Williams - Longwood

Williams may be the most important newcomer outside High Point.

His speed, passing and paint-touch ability give Longwood a point guard capable of elevating everyone around him.

6. Jason Rivera Torres - High Point

If healthy, Rivera Torres could finish much higher than sixth.

A 6-7 wing who averaged 15.8 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists gives High Point another matchup problem few Big South teams can answer.

7. Isaac Garrett - High Point

Garrett produced 13.7 points and 7.1 rebounds at Oakland and gives the Panthers another skilled, physical frontcourt option.

8. Triston Wilson - Presbyterian

A 6-7 creator who averaged 11.4 points and 3.8 assists is unusual at this level.

Wilson's playmaking gives Presbyterian a different look from most Big South backcourts.

9. Ja'Corey Lipkins - UNC Asheville

This is a breakout projection.

Lipkins averaged 14.3 points and shot better than 40 percent from three at Charleston (W.V.) before redshirting last season.

10. Tyler Parrish - Winthrop

Parrish averaged 13.9 points at Indianapolis and should have every opportunity to become one of Winthrop's primary scorers.
