NCAA Tournament 2011: Top 16 Sharpshooters of the Sweet 16
The 2011 NCAA Basketball may go down as one of the most exciting and least predictable tournaments ever.
Last second wins, buzzer-beating shots and unbelievable upsets.
There are only 16 teams left. Each one player who is a sharpshooter, a marksman and someone who can make a bucket from the floor the line or beyond the arc...or all three.
Here are the best shooters from each of the Sweet 16 teams.
They are ranked in order of their overall shooting percentage, that is, adding together their field goal percentage (FG%), free-throw percentage (FT%) and three-pointer percentage (3-PT%).
Before you look at the list, come up with who you think will make up the Top 5 on this list...
But let me say this: There are some surprises!
