Part 1: Eligible transfers that could have an impact on NCAA Tournament bids--Mid-Major Madness

Kameron Chatman, Detroit Mercy

See above. Chatman was the No. 1 player in Michigan in 2014 and the No. 38 prospect according to ESPN. He never received a ton of minutes over two years at Michigan, but did hit a game-winning three against Indiana in the 2016 Big Ten Tournament. Chatman is a 6’9’’ athlete that does several things really well. Although Bacari Alexander went just 8-23 in his first year, the Titans return their top three scorers. Chatman’s versatility will make him an ideal fit in the lineup. This could be a sleeper to win the Horizon.

Alec Peters, PF, Valparaiso

The future of this franchise seems very much in flux. Peters, one of college basketball's top shooters, is the type of player who can come in tomorrow and make an impact. No, he may not have NBA athleticism, but Peters and his remarkable 60.4 percent true shooting percentage in college works for any NBA team. A team that needs to win now like Toronto would be wise in taking a college senior like Peters.
