NCAAB: Top 5 CAA Basketball Players of All-Time


The Colonial Athletic Association also known as the CAA is home to many universities and colleges around the Mid Atlantic and the East Coast in general. With the college basketball season gearing up, I've decided to bring you the top 5 CAA basketball players of all time.

1. David Robinson (Navy) - the Admiral was inducted to the basketball Hall of Fame this year. What else is there to say?

2. Eric Maynor (VCU) - picked in the NFL draft and doing quite fine as a rookie right now.

3. Jai Lewis (George Mason) - the yin to Will Thomas' yang. He sort of resembled Charles Barkley in his svelt shape. As a center he was barely 6'7 but he did the trick powering the Patriots to a final four run.

4. Jose Juan Barea (Northeastern) - made it to the NBA as a fringe player. At one point I think he achieved a 67 ovr rating in NBA Live. A true testament to a great player.

5. Will Thomas (George Mason) - this is a dude who does what it takes to win. If you remember he was one of the players that took GMU to their famous Final Four run. A truly historic moment.
