54. Kenneth Lofton Jr. | Louisiana Tech | Sophomore
Few players boosted their stock in the past five months like the big fella down in Ruston, Louisiana. Lofton was a difference-maker for Team USA's U19 squad. C-USA's best freshman can turn into C-USA's best player, as Lofton will almost certainly improve upon his stat line (12.2 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 56.7 FG%) as a sophomore ... considering he only logged 22.8 minutes per game last season. Hoops diehards already know all about this bulky baller. --MN
