Here’s a paraphrased version of the article:
During Louisville basketball’s senior day ceremony at the KFC Yum! Center, public-address announcer Lance McGarvey introduced Chucky Hepburn to thunderous applause, acknowledging him as one of the best point guards in the program’s history.
On Monday, Hepburn made history by becoming Louisville’s first-ever ACC Defensive Player of the Year, earning 70 votes. He also became just the fourth Cardinal to receive first-team All-ACC honors since the school joined the conference in 2014. He joins an elite group alongside Donovan Mitchell (2016-17), Jordan Nwora (2019-20), and Carlik Jones (2020-21).
After transferring from Wisconsin following three seasons, Hepburn fulfilled first-year head coach Pat Kelsey’s vision of establishing Louisville as “Point Guard U.” The 6-foot-2 floor leader excelled in all facets of the game, emerging as the team’s top scorer, playmaker, and defensive anchor. He posted a career-best 16.3 points per game on 44.9% shooting, including 35% from three-point range, while also averaging a personal-best 5.9 assists and 2.4 steals over 34.4 minutes per contest.
As the postseason begins, Hepburn leads the ACC with 73 steals and ranks third in the conference with 176 assists. His 489 total points place him in a tie for 10th among ACC players, and his 118.9 offensive rating on KenPom.com ranks third in the league among high-usage players (24% or higher).
