USA Today Sports announced their College Basketball All-America teams and two Wildcats were named.
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.
