As you probably know by now, former Syracuse star Gerry McNamara is the coach there now. After a slow start last season, where the Saints finished with a modest 14-18, Siena finished this year 3rd in the MAAC with a 23-11 record and won its conference tournament. Siena runs a relatively tight rotation, and the starters play fairly heavy minutes.

Their best player, Gavin Doty, pulls 36. 7 mpg, Justice Shoats gets 35. 4, and Brendan Coyle plays 30.

3. Francis Folefac is in for 27. 7, while Tasman Goodrick averages 23.
