– Fan Voting Starts Friday, February 7 –

 

SPRINGFIELD, MASS. — The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame announced the Top 10 candidates for the 2025 Jerry West Award and, in partnership with the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA), the Top 10 candidates for the 2025 Ann Meyers Drysdale Award.

 

The annual Jerry West Award, named after the late Class of 1980 Hall of Famer and 1959 NCAA Final Four Most Valuable Player, celebrates its 11th year by highlighting the top shooting guards in Division I men’s college basketball. 

 

The Ann Meyers Drysdale Award, in its eighth year, honors the top shooting guard in women’s NCAA Division I college basketball. It is named after the Class of 1993 Hall of Famer, the first player, regardless of gender, to be chosen for an All-America Team in four consecutive college seasons.
