2024 Tournament PreviewThe Cougars exceeded expectations in their first year in the Big 12. A huge part of their scoring -- 41.1 percent, second most in the nation -- comes from the perimeter, but BYU also gets it done in the paint. The team ranks 18th in KenPom's average height metric, which leads to a top-10 2-point field-goal percentage, top-25 defensive rebounding rate and top-65 offensive rebounding rate. An all-upperclassmen frontcourt rotation relies heavily on experience, led by 6-11 senior Noah Waterman (9.7 ppg, 5.5 rpg). Four players average double figures, with leading scorer Jaxson Robinson (13.8 ppg) sinking a team-high 76 treys. A 6-5 junior, Trevin Knell shoots 39.0 percent from 3-point range. Strength of schedule is a question, though. Conference play aside, BYU played just two games against the KenPom top-50, going 1-1.
