Isaac Haas Named Finalist for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award

He may be a throwback to a former era of basketball, but having a guy like Isaac Haas and is 7’2” near 300 pound frame near the basket is a nice asset. Yeah, he is not a threat to shoot the three and he might even be a defensive liability at times, but if we need two points and can get him the ball, he is going to go and get it. As a result, he has been named as a finalist for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award given to the nation’s best center. He joins Carsen Edwards and Vince Edwards as Boilers up for their respective positional awards.
