Iowa Basketball’s Luka Garza and Joe Wieskamp Tabbed for Awards

Your red-hot Hawkeyes are making news on the court by kicking ass and taking names on the court with their DGAF attitude and bloodthirsty aggression. And even though Fran McCaffery’s squad is a tight cohesive lineup, there are two guys who just make things go for the Hawkeye Hoopsters.

You all know about Luka Garza. Well this week, the junior center was tabbed as one of 20 players to make the John R. Wooden Award late-season watchlist. Think of it as the Heisman for basketball.

Other names you may be familiar with on that list include Maryland’s Anthony Cowan and Jalen Smith, Minnesota’s Daniel Oturu, Penn State’s Lamar Stephens, Michigan State’s Cassius Winston and Dayton superstar Obi Toppin.
