No. 8 Maryland women’s basketball’s Diamond Miller was named one of 30 candidates for the Naismith Award, it was announced Tuesday afternoon. The award is given to the nation’s most outstanding player.
Miller continues to truck through an extraordinary season, in which she’s averaging 19.4 points per game, the most by a Terp since Brionna Jones averaged 19.9 in 2016-17.
The senior guard was also recently named to the late season list for the Ann Meyers Drysdale Award, given to the nation’s best shooting guard.
Miller’s well on her way to a third consecutive season with All-Big Ten team honors, ranking third in the conference in scoring and fourth in both steals and blocks.
Miller and the Terps are on the road this week to take on Northwestern (8-15, 1-11 Big Ten). Tipoff is set for Thursday at 8:30 p.m on Big Ten Network.
