EUGENE -- Oregon freshman forward Louis was named to the watch list for the Julius Erving Small Forwrad of the Year award.
King, a true freshman who is expected to be out until approximately Dec. 1 while recovering from a torn meniscus, is among 20 players on the preseason watch list announced by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on Wednesday.
The candidate list, which can be changed throughout the season, will be narrowed to 10 players in mid-February and five finalists will be presented to Erving and the Hall of Fame's selection in March.
