He will be sorely missed, as a gentleman off the court and a scoring machine. Come home any time Luka. We love you. You will always be a Hawkeye in our eyes.Luka Garza Claims 3 Player of the Year Awards Thursday

The Naismith and Wooden awards are the two most prestigious. Those are the ones ubiquitously known as “Player of the Year.” The others aren’t held in quite as high of regard. Not that they aren’t important, but when you hear the generic term POY, people are normally talking about the Naismith and Wooden.

I believe last year’s Wooden winner averages about 4 ppg for the Knicks.
