Sunday night, UNLV played North Carolina in the Vegas Classic. UNLV won. Out of the last twenty five Final Four Most Outstanding Players, two of them did not get drafted by the NBA and they both played for these schools.
Anderson Hunt; UNLV 1990 Final Four MOP. Led the Rebels to a Blowout victory over Duke in Denver and as a Junior led the Rebels back to the Final Four and scored 29 points in the Rebels 79-77 defeat to the eventual National Champion Duke
Donald Williams; North Carolina 1993 Final Four MOP. Led North Carolina who had a awesome starting five: Eric Montross, Brian Reese, George Lynch, Derrick Phelps and Williams, to the National Championship. No one knew who Donald Williams was until the Final Four, 50 points in 2 games, 50% on three. Williams helped led the Tar Heels back to the Final Four in 1995, losing to defending National Champion Arkansas, in a Final Four Matchup that was the last match-up of defending National Champions and Final Four MOP's in the Final Four
