Darrun Hilliard, Villanova:

Hilliard was selected as the Preseason Player of the Year by CBS Sports. He averaged 14.3 points per game last season, and it is no secret that Hilliard will be a major factor in the conference this year. NBA scouts love his size, ability to attack the basket, and three-point touch (he shot above 40 percent last year). With the Wildcats primed for a big season and picked to win the conference this year, Hilliard could lead the Wildcats on a deep run into the NCAA tournament and could have them in Indianapolis in late March. This is a guy who will have plenty of opportunities to make his case as a legit NBA talent.
