Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Conference Honors: Who Should Win?

After watching so much Pac-12 Basketball this year, I thought it would be fun to write up an article where I pick my winners of the following awards:

2017-18 Pac-12 Men’s Basketball All-Conference Honors

Men’s Basketball Player of the Year: Aaron Holiday, UCLA

Freshman of the Year: Deandre Ayton, Arizona

Defensive Player of the Year: Matisse Thybulle, Washington

The John R. Wooden Coach of the Year: Mike Hopkins, Washington

NCAA Basketball: UCLA at Southern California

Quite simply the UCLA Bruins would have been in dire straits this year without Aaron Holiday.
