2018-19 Pacific Takes Pac-12 Basketball Awards and Teams: Washington’s Matisse Thybulle MVP

MVP - Matisse Thybulle Sr. G Washington

Nowell might have been the safe choice, but Thybulle was the real choice in my opinion. Like Jorge Guitierrez before him, Thybulle was the conference’s best player in a down year as an impossibly-strong defender on the conference’s best team.

2nd Jaylen Nowell So. G Washington 3rd Tres Tinkle Jr. F Oregon State

Coach - Mike Hopkins Washington

No question here. Hopkins pulled the Huskies from the sad cellar of the conference to the penthouse in just two seasons. He has the Huskies poised for their Pac-12 Tournament title and NCAA Tournament appearance in years.
