Former Kentucky head coach Tubby Smith received the Dean Smith Award in Greensboro, North Carolina last night.
Smith and former Davidson coach Bob McKillop were given the award, which is given by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association.
The Dean Smith Award was created by the USBWA in 2015 to honor the late Hall of Fame coach at North Carolina. Coaches are recognized for their principles of honesty and integrity, for treating all people with courtesy and respect, for accomplishments off the court, and for the impact they have made on their community and the lives of their players.
