We all know the stars of March Madness this year to some extent. We know the Jabari Parkers, the Andrew Wiggins and the Marcus Smarts, but we don't really know the known lesser stars that got into the tournament. Here are some names that you might not know yet, but will know very soon as the tournament progresses.
Sports World News Guide to March Madness Bracket Games
Kyle Anderson, UCLA: Anderson is the heart of the Bruins and plays a game that can be summed up in one word: efficient. His passing and play making ability is unrivaled in the PAC-12 and one of the best in 2014. Anderson benefits from his spot-up shooting and ability to play the point which only adds to his value when he departs for the NBA. Florida will have their hands full if the two teams meet in the Sweet 16.
Sean Kilpatrick, Cincinnati: Kilpatrick is the one offensive weapon the Bearcats have and he is heating up quickly. Kilpatrick averaged 20.7 points per game in the regular season, but has upped his game to 24.4 points over his past eight contests and has his team in prime position to make a move. Teams have focused on him due to the effectiveness of the rest of his team and he still preforms at a elite level.
Winners and Losers of Selection Sunday
Cameron Bairstow, New Mexico: The Lobos were one of the biggest disappointments of the 2013 tournament after a first round exit to Harvard, but this year they look prime to make a run. Bairstow has been a pleasant surprise for New Mexico by averaging 20.3 points and 7.4 rebounds after averaging nearly half of that last season. Bairstow has scored in double figures in every game this season and will need to find that success in March for the Lobos's to have a chance.
