Itauma, 14-0 (12 KOs), is widely regarded as the future division leader. The southpaw, in March, thrashed Jermaine Franklin in five rounds and a July 25 date at London’s O2 Arena was then pencilled in for his next fight.

The fifth-year player put up 18.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.4 steals per game this year, shooting an efficient 50.7 percent from the field. It was likely a tough choice for voters to decide between Barnes and a…
