MWC hoops: With experience and talent, Fresno State’s expectations rise

There’s something new floating around the Fresno State basketball program this season: Pressure.

And why not? The Bulldogs, picked fifth in the preseason Mountain West men’s basketball poll, return all five starters, including what might be the best back court in the league led by three seniors – MWC Preseason Player of the Year Marvelle Harris, Cezar Guerrero and Julien Lewis.

Throw in small forward Paul Watson, and the Bulldogs have four players back who averaged double figures a season ago.

EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the sixth in an 11-part series previewing UNM basketball opponents for the coming season.
