Steve Megargee of Rivals.com has a list of college basketball players that he feels will make a big leap in 2010. As he says, this isn't a list about the next John Wall, or other incoming freshman, but about players that make a big leap from year one to year two, or year two to year three and so on.
↵One of those players is Missouri freshman Michael Dixon.
↵↵↵Dixon started eight games and averaged 7.5 points, 1.6 assists, 1.1 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 16.6 minutes as a freshman last season. He stepped up his performance in the postseason, averaging 11.5 points in the NCAA tournament. Dixon should get a chance to build on his postseason momentum as Missouri attempts to replace the departing senior guard tandem of J.T. Tiller and Zaire Taylor.

It's a good sign when your stats rise along with the pressure. I think Mizzou is pretty excited about Dixon's chances next season.
↵Also on the list? Missouri State's Nafis Ricks.
