I am seriously going to say Dundreceous Nelson of Jackson State.

Check out his stat page: LINK

He is a transfer who just became eligible, but is already lighting up the stat sheet.

He ranks 1st in the nation in offensive usage and total usage, and 4th in personal offensive efficiency scoring 25 points per 60 possesions he is out on the floor.

He also draws 7.6 fouls per 40 minutes and 6.21 fouls per 60 offensive possesions he is on the floor. He attempts 13.06 free throws per 60 possesions he is on the floor, best in the country.

He also ranks in the Top 250 nationally in Assist Rate, with 4.69 assists per 60 offensive possesions he is on the floor.

He has done all of this against a tough schedule, with Jackson State playing all of their games so far on the road.

To cap it all off he ranks 1st nationally in Game Score, a formula used to measure how many points on offense and defense a player is worth per 120 game possesions. He is worth 37.71 points, tops in the country.

Needless to say, he is a hoss.

Alan Williams of UC Santa Barbara deserves a mention. He might not be the best player, but is by far the player most valuable to his team.

He ranks in the Top 25 nationally in Total Usage, Personal Offensive Usage, Personal Total Usage, Personal Offensive Efficiency, and Total Rebounding Percentage. Last year he led the nation in Offensive Rebounding Percentage as a freshman. This year he is 27th nationally in offensive rebounding percentage, but is bound to go up the charts as he plays weaker teams in conference play.

All while UC Santa Barbara has played the toughest schedule in the nation.
