The final 15-player ballot for the men’s Wooden Award was released on Saturday and Wisconsin Badgers sophomore guard Johnny Davis made the cut. Davis is one of five Big Ten players remaining on the shortlist.
If you can’t read the embedded tweet below, the other Big Ten players are Kofi Cockburn of Illinois, Jaden Ivey of Purdue, E.J. Liddell of Ohio State and Keegan Murray of Iowa. As many have noted, this would be a killer first-team All-Big Ten squad this year as well. Purdue’s Zach Edey and Indiana’s Trayce Jackson-Davis were on the top-20 list, but will not be considered any longer.
