Before it was made official, USC men’s basketball’s Evan Mobley reflected on what it would mean to be named the 2021 Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Player of the Year. Well he doesn’t need to imagine anymore. Mobley swept the Pac-12 Men’s Basketball All-Conference and Performance Awards, presented by Nextiva, winning Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Freshman of the Year. Next up., Mobley will lead the No. 2 Trojans as they take on either No. 7 Utah or No. 11 Washington in the second round of the 2021 Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Tournament on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. PT/ 6:30 p.m. MT on Pac-12 Network.
