Rick Pitino says Montrezl Harrell is the best player in the nation

Rick Pitino praised Montrezl Harrell who had 21 points and 11 rebounds in Lousville’s victory over Indiana 94-74.

Per Zagsblog, Pitino said he thinks Harrell, a projected lottery pick who calls to mind Kenneth Faried, “is the best player in the nation.”
“He plays every possession like he hasn’t eaten in a week, and it’s special,” Pitino added.
Added Crean: “I’m not sure relentless is a strong enough word [to describe Harrell]. I don’t know what the next adjective is.”
