    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>PLAYERS TO WATCH: Patrick Mills, Saint Mary's; Stefon Jackson, UTEP; James Johnson and Jeff Teague, Wake Forest; Josh Akognon, Cal State Fullerton; James Harden, Arizona State; Curtis Jerrells, Baylor.
    POSSIBLE FINAL: Wake Forest vs. Arizona State

    STORYLINES
    1. The ballyhooed Wake Forest recruiting class, with three five-star frontcourt players, has a chance to prove itself early.
    2. Anaheim may not have the marquee teams of the other events, but it has a gaggle of big-time scoring guards. Jackson and Akognon are two of only 15 returning players in the country to average at least 20 points last season. Harden is a safe bet to join those ranks, too.
    3. The Sun Devils can establish themselves as a force after last season's NCAA Tournament snub.</div>
