Going up against big-time talent

Another reminder of the talent level SJSU will be facing in the Mountain West Conference:

CBSSports.com Top 100 Players  

46. Kendall Williams (New Mexico)

Vitals: 6-4 | Sr. | G

Comment: The reigning Mountain West Player of the Year scored 46 points against Colorado State last season. He can carry the Lobos.

47. Alex Kirk (New Mexico)

Vitals: 7-0 | Jr. | C

Comment: Kirk made a big jump (in minutes per game and production) from his freshman to sophomore year. Might another jump be on the way?

65. Derrick Marks (Boise State)

Vitals: 6-3 | Jr. | G

Comment: Marks had six separate games last season in which he scored 25 or more points – and five games in which he dished out seven or more assists.

71. Deonte Burton (Nevada)
Vitals: 6-1 | Sr. | G

Comment: The Wolf Pack were a disappointment in their first season in the Mountain West, but it wasn't Burton's fault. He could be an NBA player.

83. Anthony Drmic (Boise State)

Vitals: 6-6 | Jr. | G-F

Comment: Drmic combines with Derrick Marks to form a dangerous duo at Boise State -- with Drmic providing the consistent long-range shooting.

100. Josh Davis (San Diego State)

Vitals: 6-8 | Sr. | F

Comment: Davis averaged 18 points and 11 rebounds at Tulane last season. He'll have an immediate (and big) impact at SDSU.
