Having put up solid but unspectacular numbers, as part of a team who was solid but unspectacular for most of the season, Wade Baldwin is far from a household name.
A 19-14 record placed the Vanderbilt Commodores fifth in the SEC, and a 20 point loss to the Wichita State Shockers in their opening game of the tournament failed to make the limelight shine any closer to them in March’s showpiece.
In spite of all of that, for the past two seasons Vanderbilt has played home to a man who might just be one of the more valuable players available to NBA teams in this summer’s draft.
