- Travis Walton

Travis Walton was the starting shooting guard for the losers in last year's NCAA Championship game, Michigan State. Tom Izzo loved him, and Walton was certainly the kind of role player that big college basketball programs worship. Despite his marginal talents, Walton explored the possibility of a professional career, first getting a summer league spot with the Detroit Pistons due to his local ties before moving to Switzerland to play for the Lugano Tigers (who are also possibly the only Swiss team you've heard of, and who won the Swiss title again this season).
