A look at eight of the best players Ohio State could go head-to-head with in Pittsburgh in the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament.
The two-time reigning Big East Player of the Year may very well be the Buckeyes’ issue to deal with at the end of the weekend, as Collin Gillespie and company need only get past No. 15 seed Delaware to advance to the second round. Gillespie, the only unanimous first-team All-Big East selection this season, is averaging a career-high 15.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists during his fifth year with the Wildcats.
The other members of the Wildcats’ starting backcourt is not to be overlooked either, as Moore averages 15 points a game as the second-leading scorer for Villanova behind only Gillespie. The 6-foot-4 guard is shooting just 39 percent from the floor in his third year with the Wildcats, but has hit almost 35 percent of his 3-point shots and scored at least 12 points in nine of the final 10 games prior to NCAA Tournament play.
