I get that Gustafson is great but I'm kinda surprised that the voters are not taking the opportunity to spread the award around on weeks when they have reasons to look elsewhere (like the last two weeks when, despite great Gustafson performances, Iowa lost games)

Minnesota senior guard Kenisha Bell has been named to the 2019 John R. Wooden Award Midseason Top 25 Watch List, the Los Angeles Athletic Club has announced.

Chosen by a poll of national college basketball experts based on the student-athletes' performances during the first half of the 2018-19 season, the list comprises of 25 student-athletes who are front-runners for the award that is given to the most outstanding collegiate basketball player.

Bell was one of three players named to the list who were not initially named to the Preseason Top 30 along with Kentucky's Rhyne Howard and Arizona's Aari McDonald.

A starter in all 15 games this season, Bell is leading the 18th-ranked Gophers by averaging 18.5 points, 4.3 assists and 2.3 steals per contest this season. Her 6.5 rebounds per game rank second on the squad.
