#6 Javon Freeman (Valparaiso)
Vitals: Sophomore, 6-3, 175 pounds
Stats: 11.0 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 2.0 apg, .452/.289/.693
After flirting with the transfer portal for a few weeks this spring, Freeman surprised many when he elected to return to Valpo for his sophomore campaign. It was a huge boost for Matt Lottich’s bunch, which had a rough offseason featuring a number of transfers out of the program. Retaining Freeman along with incoming transfers Nick Robinson and Eron Gordon gives Lottich’s bunch a nice nucleus to compete in the Valley. Freeman is an elite slasher who can play with or without the ball, with the only part of his game that needs significant development being his outside shot. However, it appears Freeman has made strides in that area this offseason, with Lottich saying “he’s shooting the ball great” in a recent article in the Northwest Indiana Times.
ALSO CONSIDERED:
Cam Healy (Albany), Cody John (Weber State), Terrell Gomez (Cal State Northridge), Brian Fobbs (Towson), Taevion Hollingsworth (WKU), Nike Sibande (Miami OH), Jayvon Graves (Buffalo), Tyreke Key (Indiana State), DJ Wilkins (Drake), KJ Feagin (San Diego State), Adam Grant (Bryant), Tevin Brown (Murray State), Ross Cummings (Mercer), Parker Stewart (Tennessee Tech), Asante Gist (Iona), Donald Carey (Siena)

#16. Southern Illinois (Bryan Mullins)– Being around the Loyola program the last two years, all I’ve ever heard is how important Bryan Mullins was to that entire operation. Mullins understands where SIU fans want this program to be, and now he’ll be tasked with turning things around at a program starved to get back to the NCAA Tournament after a 12-year absence.
