Gasaway: Garza, Jared Butler of Baylor and Hunter Dickinson of Michigan. To be clear, Dickinson wasn't included in the midseason 25, and he won't actually come within a mile of the Wooden Award. He's a freshman who wasn't hyped to any significant degree before the season, so he won't be able to make up that ground against the (worthy!) likes of Garza and Butler. But everyone do me a favor and compare the young man's 2-point accuracy and possession usage to what we saw from a certain (rightly!) celebrated freshman at Duke two years ago. It's an illuminating comparison.
