Here are some teams to watch in this tournament:
#1 South Dakota State: South Dakota State won 5 straight games to close out their regular season. They don’t have the elite offense some recent SDSU teams have had, but they are more balanced and still won the Summit league regular season championship. This is a program that knows how to win and they will be the team to beat in this tournament
#2 Kansas City: UMKC is firing on all cylinders recently, winning 6 straight including a win over South Dakota State. They have the #41 defensive efficiency in the country since February 1st and I believe this defensive intensity will lead them to the conference championship and their first NCAA tournament appearance of all time
#4 Saint Thomas : Saint Thomas has the highest T-rank in the conference. They play smart basketball, making open shots and not turning the ball over very much. They hung right with Marquette early in the season and will be a threat to win the summit league crown.
