No player has been more impressive in December than Allen Crabbe. After 2+ years of inconsistent shooting and playing time, he is finally beginning to flash the talent that won him PAC-12 Player of the Year in 2013.  He has developed into a great 6th man for Terry Stotts, who seems to have a growing confidence in the shooting guard. In the first 2 months of the season, Crabbe only averaged 22.6 minutes per game. In December however, he has played 28.1 minutes per game. With playing time continuing to rise, the skies the limit for the future (potential) 6th man of the year.
