ROSEMONT, Ill. — Purdue’s Braden Smith was named the Big Ten player of the year and Michigan State’s Tom Izzo coach of the year by coaches and the media in voting coordinated by the conference. Smith and Izzo won the same honors from The Associated Press on Tuesday.

Braden Smith brushed preseason player of the year aside in October, saying he wantred the postseason honor. He got it, but not the way he wanted.
