Many many more. The middle to late 80's and and 90's was peak college basketball to me (86 high school grad). I actually loved the Big East with St. Johns (Walter Berry), Georgetown, Syracuse (Pearl Washington / Rony Seikaly), has some epic battles.

Walter Berry and Johnny Dawkins (Duke) are two of my top players I watched non UK. Pearl Washington I would try to copy my PG game after. Dawkins' shooting. Loyola Marymount, UNLV, Houston, and other teams had a very exciting style to watch. I probably left off 10-15 more players, but these was off the top of my head.
 
Denver Nuggets Carmelo Anthony. Guy gets way too much hate. Made it to the WCF when his best teammate was an out of his prime Allen Iverson and Chauncey Billups. Two really good players, but not NBA championship caliber at their ages.
