LaDontae Henton has been snubbed by some awards while being recognized by others. He is being recognized by the first-ever Julius Erving Small Forward of the Year by being part of the 15 player Watch List. The award-winner is ultimately chosen by Dr. J himself along with a selection committee. The 15 member watch list is cut to a final 5 before a decision is made. The winner of the inaugural award will be presented at ESPN’s College Basketball Awards show on April 10th in Los Angeles.

Here is the full list of 15 players on the Watch List:
