Bright Side of the Sun

● By Damon Allred
Phoenix is once again ready to host the NCAA Tournament Final Four and there are a couple of premier NBA prospects who will be on display with ample opportunity for Phoenix Suns brass to do some backyard scouting. UConn is by far the favorite to win, and though it’s hard to pinpoint a best or most important player because of their all-out team efforts, sophomore center Donovan Clingan and freshman wing Stephon Castle are the two likely lottery picks. The Huskies will match up against the Alabama Crimson Tide, who are led by Jalen Brunson clone Mark Sears and North Dakota State transfer Grant Nelson, who is playing his way back onto NBA boards.
