MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. - With each new season, a distinctive identity or fitting watchword used to describe a team naturally emerges. As practice is officially underway for the 2017-18 season for the Central Michigan men’s basketball team, depth appears to be the hallmark of this squad. Perhaps the most ever featured by a Keno Davis-led team since he took the helm of the program in 2012.
Gone to the professional ranks are the ultra-productive Marcus Keene and Braylon Rayson, who combined to score 51.2 points per game, the most by a backcourt tandem in the NCAA in 2016-17.
