Luka Garza of the Iowa Hawkeyes is the front runner for the Associated Press Player of the Year Award, and no one is really close outside of Ayo Dosunmu. He is leading the nation in scoring per game and sixth in the nation in rebounds per game. His play style is straight out of the 1980s. He lives in the low post, relying on paint seals, hook shots, and mid post jump shots. According to InStat, 52 percent of his possessions come on post touches and 12.3 percent of his possessions come on put backs. That accounts for basically two thirds of his offensive touches.
