Freshmen stars Hannes Steinbach and Andre Mills face off in College Park, with both averaging over 18 points and showing NBA potential.

Freshman stars Hannes Steinbach of Washington and Andre Mills of Maryland are set to clash in College Park, with Steinbach averaging 18.0 points and 11.3 rebounds per game, including a 26-point performance against Minnesota, and projected as an NBA lottery pick. Mills, after a slow start, has averaged 18.8 points over his last six games, shooting 53.5% from the field and 45.5% from three, including a career-high 39 points in a loss to Northwestern.
