Jaron Blossomgame, Clemson

DraftExpress Ranking: 34

Position: SF

Class: Senior

Tournament Odds: 9.08%

Big Wins: vs. South Carolina 12/21

Profile: Blossomgame was a preseason third-team All-American and is the undisputed leader of the Clemson Tigers, averaging 17.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 0.9 blocks per game. His game has indeed blossomed over his four-year college career and he is now a real offensive weapon.

Although his numbers are slightly down from last year, Blossomgame shouldn't have a problem finding a home in the pros next year. And with some luck, he might also get a chance at the tournament, which has evaded Clemson since 2011. The Tigers currently have an 11.04 nERD rating, which is good for 35th in the country.

The only higher rated team in the country with Tournament Odds below 50% is Marquette, with an 12.40 nERD rating and 46.32% chance of making the tournament.
