Aaron Craft, D’Angelo Russell named to BTN Big Ten basketball All-Decade 3rd Team

Former Ohio State guards Aaron Craft and D’Angelo Russell were two of six Big Ten basketball players named to BTN’s All-Decade B1G 3rd Team.

Aaron Craft (2010-2014)

Craft was unheralded as a freshman, but quickly showed the toughness, grit, and playmaking ability to frustrate opponents and become one of the most feared on-ball defenders the conference has ever seen. He wasn’t a top-end scoring threat, but he could penetrate and hit shots in big moments when called upon. He stayed at Ohio State for four years, and helped the Buckeyes to one Final Four. He was a two-time Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year, but perhaps most impressive, was that Craft won more Big Ten games than any other player during the decade.
