5. If Johnny Juzang (preseason favorite) doesn’t win POY, who will it be?

I think Juzang wins POTY, but if he doesn’t, it likely means someone other than UCLA won the regular-season title. If that’s the case, my best guess would be that Oregon would be that team and Will Richardson will have had a killer senior season.

I would have Will Richardson winning POY if Juzang doesn’t. Richardson is going to be the most impactful player on an Oregon Ducks team that has its eyes set on a conference championship. He stuffs the stat sheet every night, looking to improve on his 11.3 ppg, 3.4 rpg, and 3.9 apg.

Clarry

It would be shocking for Juzang to not hold onto the POY belt from the preseason to season end, but I really think Isaiah Mobley puts something special together this year with USC.
