David Roddy, Wing, Colorado State

This 6-foot-6 wing with 6-foot-11 1/2 wingspan is another marksmen, averaging an astounding 43.8 percent from behind the arc in his final season with Colorado State while taking 3.4 attempts per game.

He used that shot to average 19.4 points, while also collecting 7.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists en route to winning the Mountain West Conference’s Player of the Year award.
