Syracuse Basketball: Swagger leads Buddy Boeheim to ACC recognition

Buddy Boeheim was a little kid sharing in the success of his Hall of Fame father, Jim in the early 2000s. Now in 2020, he’s becoming a man.

On Monday Buddy was named the ACC Player of the Week becoming the first Orange player to earn that honor this season.

This recognition was earned by Buddy thanks to a stellar pair of performances that not only turned around the Syracuse basketball season but earned Boeheim some massive respect among his peers.

Buddy has been playing relatively well all season, but against Virginia Tech over the weekend he found a new level of confidence and swagger.
