WASHINGTON (AP) - Jeff Green, exercising his usual modesty, said 7-foot-2 center Roy Hibbert is the leader of Final Four-bound Georgetown. Hibbert said without a doubt that it's Green, who happens to be the Big East player of the year. When asked to break the tie, coach John Thompson III also didn't hesitate. His answer: none of the above.
Not Hibbert nor Green nor even Jonathan Wallace, the savvy point guard. Not the other starting guard, Jessie Sapp. Not emerging freshman DaJuan Summers. Then perhaps it could be Patrick Ewing Jr., who leads the team in enthusiasm and carried the East Regional trophy off the bus when the team arrived back on campus Monday.
Nope. The coach said the team's leader is junior swingman Tyler Crawford, who has started one game in his college career and this season is averaging a modest 2.1 points per game.
