Dallas James, Morgan State
Team record and KenPom rank: 13-15, No. 351
The 7-foot-1 big man logs only 6.4 minutes per game for the Bears, who are one of the worst teams in Division I.
James averages 1.6 points and 1.5 rebounds while shooting 50 percent from the floor.
Mackenzie Mgbako, Texas A&M
Team record and KenPom rank: 19-10, No. 38
Mgbako played in only seven games this season for the Aggies before suffering a season-ending foot injury that required surgery.
Assuming he returns to college next season, he’ll be a redshirt junior with two seasons of eligibility remaining.
Jakai Newton, Georgia State
Team record and KenPom rank: 10-21, No. 301
Newton has appeared in 21 games this season for the Panthers, making six starts. He’s averaging 7.2 points and 3.6 rebounds in 17 minutes. However, Newton has not played since logging 18 minutes against Northern Illinois on February 7.

Myles Rice, Maryland
Team record and KenPom rank: 11-18, No. 130

Bryson Tucker, Washington
Team record and KenPom rank: 14-15, No. 54
The former McDonald’s All-American has started 14 of the 21 games he’s played for the Huskies. A trendy preseason pick to make the NCAA tournament, Washington will fall well short of that goal.
Tucker is averaging 5.7 points, 3.9 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 22 minutes per game. He’s shooting 43.6 percent from the field, 26.1 percent on 3s and 54.5 percent from the free-throw line.
