Devin Harris

By Dennis Velasco, About.com

Harris came out of college after his junior season when he was named Big Ten Player of the Year. He was an offensive force during his college career, but proved to have more of an impact defensively when he stepped up to the pros. Lately, Harris has been showing his talent on the offensive end and his increase in scoring output from his first season to present proves that. He is one of the quickest players on the court whenever he touches the hardwood.
