KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Knox Webb senior Lukas Walls was named the 2023 TSSAA Division II-AA Mr. Basketball winner in Murfreesboro on Monday night.
The Samford commit led the Spartans to the Division II-AA semifinals this season, where the team lost to eventual champion Brentwood.
Walls posted 12 points and five rebounds in the semifinal game. The 6'4" and 190 pound shooting guard officially signed with Samford in November 2022.
Walls is the first Mr. Basketball winner from the Webb School of Knoxville since 2010 when Dwight Tarwarter was named the Division II-A winner. Tarwarter is the only other TSSAA Mr. Basketball winner in program history.
