Just a day after the SEC named Georgia basketball star Anthony Edwards as its Freshman of the Week, the future NBA lottery pick earned another honor. This honor is of the national variety.
Edwards is one of five finalists for the Jerry West Award which is awarded by the the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. The award goes to the best shooting guard in the nation. The winner of the Jerry West Award is chosen by fan votes and the hall of fame selection committee. Voting for the award begins on March 6 on hoophallawards.
