He may not have won a national championship, but University of Kentucky guard Malik Monk will not leave school empty-handed as a one-and-done.
The freshman who led the Wildcats in scoring this season won the Jerry West Shooting Guard of the Year Award on Friday night in Los Angeles.
The honor was part of the College Basketball Awards televised live on ESPN2.
Monk, who has declared for the NBA Draft, was among five finalists for the Jerry West Award, which was determined by a combination of online fan voting and a Basketball Hall of Fame selection committee.
