Jaden Ivey Named as Finalist for Jerry West Award
Jaden Ivey has had quite a journey in less than two years at Purdue. He has gone from he No. 79 national recruit in the class of 2020 to projected NBA lottery pick should he choose to enter the 2022 NBA Draft (and let’s be honest, he gone). He can also still collect some hardware as he was named a finalist for the Jerry West Award given to the nation’s best shooting guard:
Ivey is joined on the list by Arizona’s Bennedict Mathurin, Baylor’s Adam Flager, Iowa State’s Izaiah Brockington, Kansas’ Ochai Agbaji, Kentucky’s TyTy Washington, Syracuse’s Buddy Boeheim, UCLA’s Johnny Juzang, Villanova’s Justin Moore and Wisconsin’s Johnny Davis.
