2024 Tournament PreviewA strong year for the Mountain West helped Colorado State pick up six Quad 1 wins, including non-conference victories against Creighton and Colorado, resulting in an at-large NCAA Tournament bid. The offense is led by senior point guard Isaiah Stevens (16.5 ppg, 7.0 apg), whose passing prowess gives the Rams the second-best assist/field-goals made ratio in the country. Senior forwards Joel Scott (12.9 ppg, 6.0 rpg) and Patrick Cartier (10.5 ppg) help the Rams rank ninth nationally in 2-point shooting percentage (57.6). The only perimeter threats, though, are Stevens, who shoots 44.7 percent, and senior guard Nique Clifford (12.2 ppg, 7.5 rpg), a 38.2 percent long-distance shooter, as Colorado State ranks 212th in 3-point shooting. The Rams make up for it with defense, ranking top 40 in KenPom's efficiency metric. CSU's prospects, including surviving the 10-seed play-in game in the South, largely depend on Stevens.
