Award Winner
Frank Kaminsky
University of Wisconsin
Few players in the country entered the 2014-15 season with as much hype and promise as senior Frank Kaminsky and he exceeded those lofty expectations. The 2015 preseason Big Ten Player of the Year and preseason AP All-American, Kaminsky put together a season worthy of consensus national player of the year honors, winning the Wooden Award, the Naismith Trophy, the Oscar Robertson Trophy, and was also named national player of the year by the Associated Press, Sporting News, Sports Illustrated and USA Today, while garnering consensus first-team All-America honors. Simply put, Kaminsky did it all for Wisconsin. He was the only player in NCAA Division I to average at least 17.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. On the season, he led Wisconsin in points (18.8), rebounds (8.2), assists (103), blocks (57), field goal percentage (.547), 3-point field goal percentage (.416), free throws (156) and free throw attempts (200).
