7. Dillon Brooks, Oregon

Dillon Brooks has scuffled with his shot during the NCAA tournament so far. Yet, he has still managed to be a huge factor as he does a lot of things well.

Brooks has scored in double figures and grabbed at least four rebounds in each of the first four games. He has also doled out four dimes in three of the games.

The 6-7 junior forward is shooting just over 40 percent from the field and producing 1.09 points per shot, which is considerably lower than the 1.34 points per shot that he averaged during the regular season.

On the positive side, Brooks is shooting the ball well from long-distance. He has made a minimum of two triples in each game of the tournament. He was 3-of-8 from behind the arc in the Elite Eight against Kansas and is shooting 9-of-23 (39.1 percent) on his three-point attempts in the last four games.

The Pac-12 Player of the Year has carried the Ducks all year. Brooks is currently averaging 16.7 points while shooting 49.0 percent from the floor as well as 41.0 percent from the three-point line for the season.
