Well, here is where I have Markus et al.
Of the 4,095 college players to take the court this season, Dedric Lawson's ability to improve Kansas an average of 13.29 points per game on offense and defense makes him the most valuable player in the country - and here are the 20 most valuable listed at
www.valueaddbasketball.com. Nice New Year's top 8 match-up between St. John's Shamorie Ponds and Howard, who if you lost track scored 62 points in 29 minutes starting with the 16:16 mark of the Buffalo game on 13 of 15 three-pointers and 13 of 13 free throws to shoot up the 6th. He is also a (distant) 2nd in 3 pointers in the nation - though 18 3-pointers behind the 1st place Antoine Davis of Detroit.
