USA Today Sports announced their College Basketball All-America teams and two Wildcats were named.
Tyler Ulis was named a first team All-America and Jamal Murray was named to the second team.
First Team:
Tyler Ulis, So., G, Kentucky — The Wildcats would be nowhere near the SEC champion team they are without their superhero, Ulis. He’s averaged 16.6 points and 7.4 assists per game — more than doubling his dishes from a season ago. Ulis has been the best player in the SEC and the catalyst for so many of Kentucky’s wins this season. Very few players control a game like Ulis does.
Buddy Hield, Sr., G, Oklahoma
Denzel Valentine, Sr., G, Michigan State
Jakob Poeltl, So., F, Utah
Brice Johnson, Sr., F, North Carolina
Second team
Jamal Murray, Fr., G, Kentucky
Grayson Allen, So., G, Duke
Malcolm Brogdon, Sr., G, Virginia
Perry Ellis, Sr., F, Kansas
Yogi Ferrell, Sr., G, Indiana
