PARK RIDGE, Ill. (AP) -- Michigan State's Draymond Green has been chosen as player of the year in the Big Ten. Green averaged 16.2 points and a league-best 10.5 rebounds as the Spartans shared the regular-season title with Michigan and Ohio State.
Michigan State's Tom Izzo was named coach of the year for a third time as the Spartans finished 24-7 and 13-5 in the league after starting the season unranked.
Joining Green on both the coaches and media first team are conference scoring leader John Shurna of Northwestern, Ohio State star Jared Sullinger and Purdue's Robbie Hummel. The coaches selected Wisconsin guard Jordan Taylor to the first team, while the media gave the nod to Tim Frazier of Penn State.
