Grand Canyon won the WAC Tournament and grabbed a spot in the NCAA Tournament for the very first time. The Antelopes score in bunches, averaging 75.6 points and 16.1 assists (No. 30 in NCAA). Jovan Blackshear Jr. is the team’s best player, averaging 14.0 points on a ridiculous 70.6% shooting average. Blackshear also grabs 9.9 rebounds per game.
Iowa features one of the best players in the country in big man Luka Garza. He will be mentioned often by the commentators, though the Hawkeyes are a solid team around him as well. This is why they have been among the best in a stacked Big Ten conference. Iowa also protects the ball, which is essential in March, only turning the ball over on 13.4% of their possessions- the best in Division I basketball. With a fifth overall KenPom ranking, this is a dangerous team.
