Ten Big Ten players ready to break out in 2018-19

That was the case in the Big Ten Tournament (circled), but really just the Big Ten Tournament.

Yeah, somewhere around 24-25% each seems like a good guess. For the reasons you discuss – and because Michigan games tend to have low numbers of possessions – I don’t expect Poole to hit 17+ ppg, but 14-15 doesn’t seem far-fetched to me.

A few other names I’d throw on the list: Fernando (MD), Coffey & Curry (MN).

Coffey I don’t really consider as a breakout guy, he was basically preseason All-Big Ten a year ago IIRC. Was obviously injured, but I’d consider it more of a comeback than a breakout if he has a big year.

Bruno Fernando obviously has the NBA hype, but I’ve never really been a fan of his production on the floor. Maybe he’ll prove me wrong.
