Duke's Boozer, Kent State's Gillespie are Oscar Robertson Trophy Players of the Month

The U.S. Basketball Writers Association is proud and excited to unveil a new monthly feature for the 2025-26 season. At the beginning of each month the association will be awarding two Oscar Robertson Player of the Month honors. One will go to a player at a high-major program, the other at a mid-major school. This will continue to spotlight big-time performers and add a little more attention and recognition beyond our five-man Player of the Week spotlights.

But the season has finally arrived once more, and with it, four of the best words are again our reality: college basketball is back.
