The first wave of accolades have come in for Missouri senior forward Kobe Brown, who on Monday earned first-team all-Southeastern Conference honors by the league coaches. Brown was the only Mizzou player to receive any of the SEC’s many postseason honors. He also was named the league’s scholar athlete of the year.
Brown is having a career season for the 23-win Tigers, averaging 15.9 points per game while shooting 45.3% from 3-point range. Brown also leads MU with 6.2 rebounds per game and ranks third with 2.5 assists.
Brown is the fifth Mizzou player voted first-team all-SEC by the league coaches, following Phil Pressey (2013), Jabari Brown (2014), Kassius Robertson (2018) and Dru Smith (2021).
