By 37 Comments

The John R. Wooden Award Preseason Top 50 candidates list was released Monday morning.

There were nine differences from the “official” list (culled from the submissions of all of the advisory committee members across the country) and the list I turned in a few weeks ago.

Here are the nine players on the “official” list that were not on mine:

  • Dee Bost (6-2, Sr./Mississippi State)
  • Elias Harris (6-7 Jr./Gonzaga)
  • Joe Jackson (6-0 So./Memphis)
  • Darius Johnson-Odom (6-2 Sr./Marquette)
  • Andrew Nicholson (6-9 Sr./St. Bonaventure)
  • Peyton Siva (6-0 Jr./Louisville)
  • Joshua Smith (6-10 So./UCLA)
  • Maalik Wayns (6-2 Jr./Villanova)
  • Patric Young (6-9 So./Florida)

And here are the nine on my list that didn’t make the preseason cut on the “official” list:

  • Reggie Hamilton (6-2 Sr. Oakland/17.4 pg/5.4 apg as a junior/lit up first-round pick Cory Joseph for 25 points, 6 rebs and 5 assists and only 2 TOs in 85-81 NCAA tourney loss to Texas

  • Deshaun Thomas (6-6 So. Ohio State)/7.5 points and 3.5 rebounds per game, with .479 shooting percentage as sophomore)
  • Erving Walker (5-7 Sr. Florida/second-team all-SEC and 14.4 points, 3.3 assists and .411 shooting as junior, including .385 on 3s)
