Despite the bursting of the bubble for the UCONN football team following an embarassing loss to the Cincinnatti Bearcats, the school still has a handful of quality NBA players to make fantasy basketball fans happy. The drop by Ben Gordon from 20th overall to 86 is odd but is likely a result of a small sample size. However, the UCONN alumni ranked ahead of him is not too surprising.

The Beast of the Big East!
I don't expect Rudy Gay to be considered better than Gordon, but he does fill-up the boxscore and that goes a long way in this ranking system. If Emeka Okafor could hit his free throws, he would be considered the best of the lot. Double digit scoring and rebounding along with blocked shots goes a longer way than the field goal accuracy of Rip Hamilton or the three-point and free throw prowess of Ray Allen.
