ATLANTA – The Atlanta Tipoff Club announced today the late season team of 30 men's players competing to receive the 50th Naismith Trophy, and North Carolina's Joel Berry II and Luke Maye both made the cut.

From this list, 10 semifinalists will be revealed on Feb. 28, and only those 10 players are eligible for the group of four finalists, which will be released in mid-March. Fans, once again, will be able to vote for their favorite player by visiting naismithtrophy.com/vote between March 19-30 to cast their ballot, and the fan component counts for five percent of the overall final vote.
