The U.S. Basketball Writers Association unveiled their three annual award watch lists today; two for men’s collegiate basketball players and one for women’s. The two awards for men’s basketball are the Oscar Robertson Trophy (Men’s National Player of the Year), and the Wayman Tisdale Award (Men’s National Freshman Player of the Year).
You have to read the list closely to find the one Arizona Wildcat on the either list, and that player is freshman guard Allonzo Trier. Congrats to Allonzo!
If he stays on track, he may have a good chance to win, it depends on how much he can grow in the next few months.
