The preseason honors continue to roll in for Jeremy Fears Jr.. The expectations are high this year for the Michigan State basketball star point guard, and he's on pace to make virtually every preseason All-American team and Player of the Year watchlist. Another big one came in on Thursday, as Fears was named to the NABC's Player of the Year Preseason Watchlist.
