Tyler Harvey – Eastern Washington

Quick. Name the nation’s leading scorer. If you knew it was Tyler Harvey, you probably pay close attention to college basketball. However, most would probably guess someone like Jahlil Okafor. Harvey is currently averaging 22.9 points per game and shooting 42 percent from deep and 47 percent from the field.

Harvey also has what can be a favorable first round matchup against Georgetown. The game is being played in Portland and the Hoyas have struggled in recent tournaments. Whether it was Stephen Curry, VCU or Florida Gulf Coast, there have been names breaking out against Georgetown recently.
