Raheem Moss - 34 |
 |
|
The most proven offensive performer on the squad, Raheem Moss will most likely be a key to Cleveland State's success this year. The leading candidate to start out on the wing for the third straight year, Moss' offensive skills make him a threat from all over the court. He uses his deadly three-point shooting to open up defenses while his quickness and strength let him explode past defenders.
