Rock M Nation is handing out postseason hardware. On Monday, we unveiled our picks for All-SEC teams, and today we’ll single out players who garnered individual recognition.
Let’s cut to the chase: Why pick Williams over PJ Washington? No doubt, the Kentucky sophomore displayed the consistency we pined for a year ago. Yet Williams, who was sterling in taking home the hardware, also improved. As a junior, Tennessee’s bulwark stretched his range to the 3-point line and displayed a knack for burying contested jumpers in the mid-range — all while bullying opposing bigs on the block.
