San Diego State looks to become the first school to win consecutive Mountain West conference champions since Utah State did it in 2019 and 2020. But the Aztecs will face a tougher challenge after they finished as the No. 5 seed.

Utah State, meanwhile, cruised to the top of the Mountain West after the Aggies won their past five games and seven of their past eight. Former Montana State forward Great Osobar leads Utah State with 17.6 points and 9.0 rebounds per game.

Oddly enough, the Aggies aren't the best offensively or defensively in the conference. New Mexico led the Mountain West with 82.5 points per game, while San Diego State and Nevada allowed 66.2 and 66.5 points per game, respectively.

SDSU's Jaedon LeDee is the top player to watch offensively. He averaged more than 20 points per game during the regular season to lead the conference. He has an outside chance to be drafted into the NBA.

Other NBA prospects include Nevada's Kenan Blackshear, Colorado State's Isaiah Stevens and New Mexico's Jaelen House — who's the son of former NBA forward Eddie House.

Here is everything you need to know about the Mountain West basketball tournament, including TV and streaming options for each game.
