Sun Belt Basketball: Ranking of 25 best players from last decade (2013-23)

There’s always thrill and excitement in world of college basketball, even in the quiet moments. Any gym around the country will feature some basketball player honing their craft, hoping to make themselves known to the world. We remember the buzzer beaters and the major upsets and the teams that go on crazy runs, but most players don’t get that level of recognition in this sport.

Today, we’re proceeding with the latest edition in this long-running series that has studied and identified each conference’s best players of the last ten seasons. Obviously, there are numerous players who stand out every seasons, either All-Americans or great performers or those who make waves in the NCAA Tournament. Many of these players star in the power conferences and our focus today is not on one of those leagues.

While we do have a few players that became more nationally known from the Sun Belt, it’s indeed another mid-major conference full of teams without extended success in their history. The league has also undergone various changes over the years. Programs like Georgia State, Little Rock, and Louisiana have each had moments in the sun in the last decade, but over a dozen other schools have played in this conference. There’s a wide variety of players represented today, all of whom did marvelous work in Sun Belt Basketball.

Before we begin, please remember that this is only looking at the last decade. Players from before 2013 are not included. Players whose careers began more than a decade ago will certainly be considered, but solely based on their performances in these last ten years. The same is true about those players who spent time at other schools in different conferences. The Sun Belt has had a plethora of exciting young athletes; let’s start running through these names.
