Using Sports-Reference.com, and going in and looking at each team's roster and their win share totals, here were the tops in the Big Ten

8.1 Cody Zeller
7.7 Victor Oladipo
7.0 Jared Berggren
6.9 Trey Burke
6.4 Adrein Payne
5.8 Aaron White
5.8 Deshaun Thomas
5.1 Christian Watford

So White ranked 6th in the league.
 
I would say that is a pretty good list to be a part of. I wanted to complain about Berggren being on there but the more I thought about it, all he does is win.
 
Interesting list. My eyeball test has Burke at the top,with Oladipo #2. D.Thomas and Zeller would be next.
I would have Dev higher than Aaron, but Aaron does rebound a lot,which I am sure is big in these ratings.
 
Pretty cool site.

I expect Iowa to have 3 guys in the top ten of block% next year. Contrary to Duff's opinion, Woody is in there this year and higher than Zeller.

Interesting things to notice about this. White will return as the 2nd or 3rd leading Win Sharer in the B1G depending on if Zeller comes back.

If Zeller doesn't come back, IN loses 3 players in the top 10 of the conference. They have a lot of talent coming in but will be rebuilding from the standpoint of who contributes to their wins.

Where does Marble fit on this scale?
 
In the latest DraftExpress mock draft they have Zeller at #3,and Oladipo at #6. Burke is #10.
Those four have to come out with that high of slots.
Thomas is mid-second round....he has a decision. I suspect he comes out,but he could stay,and OSU would be great.
Adrian Payne is early 2nd round,and Gary Harris is #23 1st round....probably stay put.

I've been rooting for Harris to blow up this tournament and get into that late lottery range. It would be great if he goes this year too.
 
Payne, imo, will be a very good NBA player. He has all the tools. I think he'll be a much better player than Zeller in the league. Zeller's stock has dropped a lot in the past year, imo.
