Tim Duncan

Tim Duncan became the first player from Wake Forest University to win the Wooden Award and the first from the U.S. Virgin Islands. He was a three-time All-America selection and was twice named the ACC Player of the Year. He led Wake Forest to four straight 20-win seasons from 1994-97 including ACC titles in 1995 and 1996, the program's first since 1962. Duncan still holds the school record for career double-doubles (87), and he finished his career ranked second in NCAA history with 481 blocked shots. Duncan finished his senior season with career high averages of 20.8 points, 14.7 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game while shooting .606 from the field and winning the Defensive Player of the Year for a third straight season. Duncan was first in the 1996–97 NCAA Division I in rebounding, tenth in blocked shots (3.3 bpg), and 28th in scoring (20.8 ppg).
