Just a day after releasing its college basketball preseason top-25, NBC Sports announced its selections for 2018-19 All-Americans. 20 players were named across four teams, and among those included are seven Atlantic Coast Conference players and two Tar Heels.
North Carolina senior forward Luke Maye has been named a preseason first team All-American after averaging 16.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists last season. The Huntersville, North Carolina native was the most improved player in college hoops last season, and his efforts earned him third team All-American honors from the Associated Press and Sporting News.
