Most Improved: Andre Wesson

More from Ohio State Basketball

Andre Wesson’s name pops up in these awards twice as he was clearly the most improved player on the Buckeye team this season. In his sophomore season, when Keita Bates-Diop and Jae’Sean Tate were the key players for the Buckeyes, Wesson only scored averaged 2.9 points per game.

But after the departure of those two players, Wesson took a much bigger role on both offense and defense. He became a primary defender and averaged 8.6 points per game on offense.

Definitely deserving of the most improved player award.

Honorable Mention: Kaleb Wesson

Andre’s younger brother made strides as well. Kaleb’s increased his points per game total by 4.4, rebounds by 2 and was a much more effective passer and defender.

Next. Spring transfers interesting, especially these two. dark

There you have it, my Buckeyes end of the season awards.
