Best Player:

Tyreke Evans SG 6-6 219 FR
Evans is probably one of the top 2 or 3 freshman in the country. Hes averaging a nice 17.0 PPG 5.4 RPG 3.8 APG, not to mention hes shooting 45% from the field and 71% from the line(a memphis oddity)

My Take:
John Calipari will have his team firing on all cylinders. Its time that the Zags took another game in this series. I expect the Tigers to give the Zags fits on the offensive end, but in when all is said and done the Zags will prevail.

Final Score: Gonzaga 71 Memphis 65
