2017-18 MAC Men’s Basketball Top Player Countdown: #1 Thomas Wilder, Western Michigan Broncos

Last season was the year of the big man in the MAC. Most every team was led by a player in the paint. This year is the year of the guard. 5 of our top 6 players in the league play the position, and none does it better than Thomas Wilder from the Western Michigan Broncos.

The 6’3 guard from Montgomery, Illinois has already had a heralded career. As a freshman, he was named to the MAC All-Freshmen team. As a sophomore, he was Second Team All-MAC. As a junior, he was First Team All-MAC, team MVP, and Second Team All-District for the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
