No. 1: Tre Mann is heating up

Every March, there seems to be a player that carries their team to the second weekend of the tournament and sometimes to the Final Four. When I think of these players, I think of Steph Curry in 2008 carrying Davidson to the Elite Eight, or Kemba Walker’s run with UConn in 2011. This could be Tre Mann’s tournament to shine, and he is heating up at the right time.

He scored 22 points and 30 points against Vanderbilt and Tennessee in his two SEC tournament games. Mann has that “IT” factor when you watch him on the floor, and you can tell by watching that he is the best player out there at all times. Keep an eye on Mann this weekend to score in bunches and help facilitate the offense.
