I'm not going to split hairs over what one considers to dominate. There are only 6 major bball conferences, if you want to include the pac-12 who has zero top 25 teams! Asking any player in any category to win their conference is no given. These players put up numbers, but if they go to crappy teams theres no saying what may happen, alas Ben Simmons.
Many of the top players in the last 5 years have gone to Duke and Kentucky. Getting one of these players, more often then not, gives your team an opportunity to compete with the best teams, whether you win your conference or not. I'll take Hurt, I'll take his 15ppg, 8 reb per game, even if he is one and done, even if we wouldn't win the Big Ten.
2017:
Bagley, Duke all american.
Michael porter, injured
Ayton, pac 12 player of the year
Bamba big 12 second team
W. Carter, 2nd team acc
Duval
Sexton, 2nd team sec
Gary Trent,
Jaren Jackson, 3rd team big ten
Kevin Knox. 1st team sec.
Of the 9 who weren't injured, only 2 didn't make and all conference team according to wiki. 2 were all americans.
Said i would take him too but to me dominate means to control or to take control of the conference and few do that.
