March Madness - Ranking the all-time starting fives for the 2022 NCAA tournament Sweet 16 teams

With this year's Sweet 16, we've decided to have some fun. For every team that's still alive in the 2022 NCAA tournament, we picked an all-time starting five — and we ranked them.

This list is solely based on collegiate production. The goal was to create a traditional lineup that features guards and big men. We couldn't pull that off with every school. Bill Walton and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar have to be paired together on UCLA's all-time team, right?

We also admit that there are a lot of players who could have cracked these lists. But when you limit yourself to five players, things get more difficult and probably more controversial.

That didn't stop us from trying.

Here is our list of the all-time starting fives — and the coaches to lead them — for this season's Sweet 16 teams, and where we believe they should be ranked.

Good luck guarding both Abdul-Jabbar and Walton.

G Gail Goodrich: AP All-America first team (1965); won national titles in 1964 and 1965; averaged 19.0 PPG in three seasons at UCLA

G Reggie Miller: All-Pac-12 first team (1986, 1987); averaged 25.9 PPG in 1985-86; averaged 22.3 PPG and 44% from 3 in 1986-87

F Marques Johnson: Won the first Wooden Award (1977); averaged 11.6 PPG for the 1975 national title team; AP All-America first team (1977); averaged 21.4 PPG, 11.1 RPG in 1976-77
