I considered Dragovic, but he's just not a guy that creates enough of his own offense or seems like he can be your first or second option on offense. UCLA isn't going to have the bigs this season for him to depend on sagging coverage, nor the guards to ensure he'll be set up very well. And, since all he does very well is shoot the ball, I didn't think he warranted all-conference. We'll see... It's very likely he'll make one of these lists this season. But, for now, I'm sticking with my view of his game as one-dimensional. Thanks so much for commenting! It’s a good point, Paul.

I know that I hated it when he was in the game because he is one of those players that just makes good (or bad, if you’re a fan of the opponent) things happen. None of his stats flash out at you, but he just has a really well-rounded game and is an extremely smart player who will kill you every time if you make a defensive mistake. Maybe he would be in the “overlooked players who make everyone else on the floor better and I know as a Husky fan I hate it every time he touches the ball” category.
