Defensive All-Effy Team: The Elite Eight Forwards/Centers (minimum 50% of minutes played)
Reggie Lynch, 6'10" junior., Minnesota: It's no stretch to call Lynch the best shot-blocker in college hoops. He ranked No. 1 nationally in block percentage in each of his two seasons at Illinois State, in '13-14 and '14-15, and then was No. 2 (at 14.5%) in his debut year with the Gophers. Their defense was a full tenth of a point per possession better when he was on the floor (0.92 PPP) than when he was sitting (1.02 PPP), according to hooplens.com.
