Pac-12 Conference Men's Basketball Sixth Man of the Year

The Pac-12 Sixth Man Player of the Year is an annual college basketball award presented to the top bench player in men's basketball in the Pac-12 Conference. To be eligible for Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year, players must not have exceeded more than one-third starts in league games. The winner was selected by conference coaches, who were not allowed to vote for players on their own team.[1] The award began in 1984, when the conference consisted of 10 teams and was known as the Pacific-10.[2] It stopped being issued starting in 1987 but was restarted in 2018.[3] The conference added two teams and became the Pac-12 in 2011.
