Virginia Cavaliers
Don’t sleep on the Cavaliers. This may not be Tony Bennett’s best group in Charlottesville, but it’s an experienced bunch who knows how to play together, and thus have won a ton of games. Nobody exemplifies Virginia basketball better than senior point guard Kihei Clark. The LA native helps orchestrate the offense and sets the tone with his aggressive defensive mindset. However, what has made Virginia into a top-10 group this year is the development of guys like Armaan Franklin, Jayden Gardner and Reece Beekman. All three wings boast size and the ability to score — which are understandably useful traits for postseason play.
