Sean Kilpatrick, Cincinnati (20.7 ppg, 4.4 rpg):
The 24-year-old New York native has been instant offense for the Cincinnati Bearcats. Kilpatrick averaged 24.4 points over his final eight regular-season games (20.7 for the season) and has tallied the second-highest career point total (behind the great Oscar Robertson) at 2,127. The projected All-American hopes to lead Cincinnati to at least the Sweet 16, for the first time since 2012.
