Frank Mason III collected so many college postseason accolades last year, he could decorate one of the larger suites at Golden 1 Center. John Wooden award, Oscar Robertson award, James Naismith award. The only thing missing was his name on a peach basket, assuming a few of the antiquated original tools of the game still exist.
During four seasons at Kansas, the Kings rookie was a one-man power play, a point guard who relentlessly attacked the basket, converted 3-pointers, directed a high-powered offense, and used his muscular, 5-foot-11 frame to pester and overpower opponents.
Every practice. Every game.
