Southern Methodist University shooting guard 6’6 Shake Milton a sophomore from Owasso, Oklahoma gets to come home and play in front of his hometown family. Milton averages 13 points and 4 assist per game, if the Mustangs make a deep run into the Big Dance, Milton will play a critical role in that process.
The Baylor Bears come into this year’s tournament as a #3 seed and must be taken very seriously having been a top five team during this year’s NCAA basketball season.
The Kanas Jayhawks come into this years NCAA tournament as the #1 seed in the Midwest NCAA division and as usual Kanas is strong and almost a lock in for this years NCAA Mens Final Four in Phoenix but, this is the Big Dance and stranger things have happened, bracket busters are always one shot away from pulling the upset and moving on in the tournament.
