FSU big men gear up for major test at Maryland Maryland center Alex Len will present a big challenge for FSU on Wednesday night. / In their first 14 games of Division-I basketball, the young centers on Florida State's men's basketball team have struggled to find any sort of comfort zone. On either side of the court. On Wednesday night, they’ll face a player who could make things even more uncomfortable for them. Maryland’s Alex Len, a 7-foot-1 sophomore, is currently averaging 13.5 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game for the 13-1 Terrapins. And the Ukraine native is expected to be a very high selection whenever he decides to enter the NBA Draft. "There’s a reason why he’s supposed to be one of the top five picks in the draft," FSU head coach Leonard Hamilton said. Len is coming off a 16-point, nine-rebound effort against Virginia Tech in the Terrapins’ 94-71 victory. He played just 24 minutes in the win.
