As a two-time men's college basketball Wooden Award winner, Oscar Tshiebwe will have to fight hard to make history.
The John R. Wooden Award presented by Wendy's is for the best player in the game for 2022-23. He could become the second two-time winner of the men's Wooden Award, just 40 years after former Virginia starRalph Sampson won it.
Tshibawe is not the favorite for the award.
This edition of the men's midseason list features Drew Timme, who has put up the best numbers of his career, and Zach Edey, who has led the Boilermakers to the AP No.1 ranking.
Jordan "Jelly" Walker, who is projected to finish the year ranked second all-time in scoring, is one of a few mid-major stars who made the list.
The majority of the slots are occupied by upperclassmen. Four freshman are on the list.
Two Tar Heels players made the list despite the team's struggles.
The players who didn't make the halfway list can still be considered for the award. During the 2012-13 season, former Indiana star Victor Oladipo was not on the midseason list, but he finished second in the race to the winner of the year.
The award will be presented in April.
