College basketball preseason watch lists and player previews

As the college basketball season approaches, preseason watch lists and roster previews are being released. Eight point guards from the SEC have been named to the Bob Cousy Award preseason watch list, which recognizes the best point guard in college basketball. Notable SEC representatives include Donovan Dent of LSU and Aden Holloway of Alabama.

In addition to award watch lists, individual player previews are highlighting key roster additions. Jimmie Williams, a fifth-year guard joining Ohio State, is noted for his previous performance at Duquesne, where he averaged 15.1 points and 4.5 rebounds per game and earned All-Atlantic 10 Third Team honors.
