6'2 175 lbs. Myles Rice. 3. . Sophomore. 482. Myles Rice. player. Myles Rice.
Rice had a standout season for Washington State, averaging 14.8 points and 3.8 assists per game. It should not go understated how impressive this is for a freshman on a power six-team, as he earned All-Pac-12 honors. He led the Cougars to an NCAA tournament appearance, even winning a game against mid-major powerhouse Drake in the first round.
Rice also averaged nearly two steals per game, a true two-way threat. It was tempting to put Rice higher than three on this list, but I believe there are two players who are deserving of their spots over him.
