What’s on the table today?: Wooden Award Odds (Johnny Davis amongst finalists)
La Crosse Central/Wisconsin Badgers super-star sophomore Johnny Davis has been announced as one of the 15 finalists for the Wooden Award in college basketball, one of the most prestigious awards in all of college hoops. The top 8 candidates (by betting odds are detailed below) with odds courtesy of DraftKings via Vegas Insider.
Davis is the only Big Ten player to lead his team in ppg (20.3), rpg (8.3) and apg (2.3) and he has done even better when playing conference competition, ranking second in the Big Ten in points (20.4 ppg) and third in rebounds (9.1 rpg). Even more impressively, Davis leads the nation in scoring vs. Top 25 teams (24.1 ppg & 8.5 rpg), and leads all major conference players with 22.5 ppg away from home.
He is also a top-five finalist for the Jerry West Award (top shooting guard in the country) and was named a mid-season All-American by multiple publications. Davis would be the second Badger to win this award along with Frank Kaminsky, who won it for the 2014-15 season.
