On Wednesday, the Wooden Award Midseason Top 25 list was released. The Wooden Award honors the best player in collegiate basketball.
Not being on the list doesn’t preclude somebody from winning the award. The final list will be released on March 7th.
Only one Kentucky player, Willie Cauley-Stein, made the list. Duke’s Jahlil Okafor and Tyus Jones cracked the list. Locally, St. John’s guard D’Angelo Harrison is on the list.
The full list is below:
