SU's starting guard has cousins living here in Syracuse to support him on and off the basketball court this season.
Teams rise to the top of the polls with support.
As the Syracuse University men's basketball team currently plays as the nation's No. 1 team, senior guard Scoop Jardine knows all about support.
Most fans know Jardine is a cousin to fellow teammate sophomore Dion Waiters, but the senior guard also has two more cousins who moved to Syracuse during the past year.
