Nine freshmen, led by Duke's Cameron Boozer and BYU's AJ Dybantsa, headline the men's Wooden Award midseason top 25 watchlist released Wednesday.

Boozer leads the nation in scoring at 23.3 points per game, with Dybantsa just behind him at 23.1 per game. Boozer has been arguably the most consistent player in college basketball since the start of the season, scoring at least 14 points in every game and tallying seven double-doubles to lead Duke to a 14-1 start. The 6-foot-9 forward is also averaging 9.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists.

Dybantsa, meanwhile, recently put together one of the most impressive stretches ever by a freshman. In the month of December, he averaged 27.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 2.3 steals, shooting nearly 66% from the field.

Graham Ike Named to Wooden Award Midseason Watch List

Gonzaga’s graduate forward Graham Ike (16.8 points on 52.2 shooting from the field, team-leading 8.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists per game) was listed on the Top 25 Wooden Award Midseason Watch List. Completely well-deserved, but his partner in crime in the frontcourt wasn’t.

Redshirt junior forward Braden Huff leads the Zags in scoring at 18.1 points per game on a 66.2 field goal percentage, which ranks the tenth-highest in the country. As for Ike, he has put together nine double-doubles so far in 2025-26. That is tied for the fifth-most in the nation.
