Senior forward Elijah Childs of the Bradley men's basketball team was named to the Lou Henson Award Watch List, announced on Tuesday. The award is presented annually to the nation's top Division I mid-major player.

Through 16 games this season, Childs leads the Braves with 14.6 points, 7.9 rebounds and 20 blocks during the 2020-21 campaign. The senior currently ranks sixth in the Valley in points, second in rebounds and fifth in blocks per game as he is also just one of three players in the conference to score in double figures in each game this season.
