Rakeem Christmas' career season has him on the Lute Olson Award Mid-Season Watch List. He is one of 25 other men's basketball student-athletes in the running for the accolade awarded to the Nation's top Division I player who has played at least two seasons.
The award is named in honor of coaching great Lute Olson, who won 780 games in 34 seasons, 24 of which were spent at the University of Arizona. The 2015 recipient will be announced at the CollegeInsider.com Awards Banquet on April 3 in Indianapolis, site of the 2015 men's NCAA Basketball Championship.
