Duke Basketball: R.J., Zion named to Oscar Robertson Award Watch List

R.J. Barrett and Zion Williamson have taken the college basketball world by storm in the first two months of their collegiate careers, and the dynamic Duke duo have been named to the mid-season Oscar Robertson Award Watch List.

The Oscar Robertson Award is given to the most outstanding player in the nation at the end of the season.

R.J. Barrett has been leading the Blue Devils by averaging 23.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game along with 1.1 steals and 0.5 blocks per game.

However, Zion Williamson receives all the highlights and accolades for the Blue Devils due to his thunderous dunks and jaw dropping plays, and rightly so.
