Jimmer Fredette can pinpoint the night his life changed forever. The former BYU standout and current Shanghai Sharks star grew from a sparsely-recruited freshman to a leading player in the Mountain West as he entered his senior season, but the hysteria surrounding his National Player of the Year campaign didn’t truly begin until a January night in Provo, Utah, in 2011.
