Preseason awards means basketball season is right around the corner.
The Big 12 announced Thursday its preseason awards for men’s basketball, including the Preseason All-Big 12 Team. The recognition is voted by Big 12 coaches, who are not allowed to vote for their own players.
Oklahoma State did not have any players earn a preseason honor, while Kansas was the only program with two players on the Preseason All-Big 12 Team.
KU center Hunter Dickinson became the first player to ever earn both preseason player of the year and newcomer of the year for the Big 12.
