Indiana men’s basketball is going home with something this March, that much is true.
Lamar Wilkerson, a senior guard and the Hoosiers’ leading scorer with 21 points per game, earned Second Team All-Big Ten honors from the league’s coaches, per an official release. Conor Enright, a fellow senior guard and starter at point guard, was named the team’s Big Ten Sportsmanship Award honoree, an award the conference refers to as “individuals who have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior.”

Wilkerson’s 21 points per game ranked second among all Big Ten men’s basketball players, just behind Northwestern’s Nick Martinelli with 22.7. He spent his lone remaining season of eligibility with the Hoosiers this past regular season. Enright stood out as a player who’d help opposing players off the floor after falls and helped lead a campaign encouraging fans to sign up for organ donation during the season.
The Hoosiers will face the winner of No. 18-seed Penn State and No. 15-seed Northwestern on Thursday evening at the Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament.
