The Lute Olson Award is given annual to the nation’s top Division I player.
BOSTON – Kentucky men’s basketball forward Reid Travis was one of 30 players named to the Lute Olson Award Midseason Watch List on Wednesday.
The Lute Olson Award is presented annually to the nation’s top Division I player. Although Travis is ineligible for that award because freshmen and transfers are excluded (Travis is a graduate transfer from Stanford), he is eligible to make the Lute Olson All-America Team.
Travis is one of three players from the Southeastern Conference on the midseason list.
