Evan Turner: Ohio State
Perhaps the best player in the nation, Ohio State junior guard Evan Turner might pose as the single largest factor in this tournament.
The No.6 Buckeyes earned a solo championship for the Big Ten regular season and are the favorites to take home the tournament title as well because of his play.
Turner averages 19 points, nine rebounds, five assists and a steal per game.
His team is full of athletic guards who can dribble, drive and shoot, yet Turner's play is the basis of its success.
Only seven players deep, the Buckeyes will need Turner to continue to play 36 minutes, handle the ball and make their game's defining plays.
