7. A.J. Green, Northern Iowa

Northern Iowa was 25-6 the last time Green played a full season, but it went 10-15 last season when Green was knocked out for the season after a left hip injury that led to surgery. He then had surgery on his right hip two months later. That is concerning, but hopefully the player who averaged 19.7 points per game in 2019-20 will return to his old self, because that dude was so much fun to watch play basketball. 

Even if Green’s athleticism takes a hit, he’s so skilled and creative in how he gets his buckets that he could be like the old dude at the Y who amazes the young pups by his production. He needs little space to get off his high-release jumper, and then he’s got an assortment of finishes in the paint — including scoop shots with either hand. Green’s teammates told the local paper that he’s moving and jumping even better than before. If that’s the case, then he should get right back to dominating the Missouri Valley.
