April 3, 20197 yr At least one of the Auburn guards should have been worthy of some kind of mention. They’ve been 3 shooting machines this year.
April 3, 20197 yr Remove the KY ties, is Ja Morant really a 1st Team All-American? Yes. Averaged 20/10 and is a consensus top 3 pick.
April 3, 20197 yr Yes. Averaged 20/10 and is a consensus top 3 pick. To be exact, 24.5 ppg and 10 assists. Also 5.7 rebounds. Recorded three triple-doubles this season which is nuts in a 40 minute game.
April 3, 20197 yr Remove the KY ties, is Ja Morant really a 1st Team All-American? I think he is. In my mind Zion, Barrett, & Ja were the top three. Hachimura would be my #4 & Williams #5.

April 3, 20197 yr Remove the KY ties, is Ja Morant really a 1st Team All-American? Regardless of competition and statistics, he passes the the eye test to me. He would start, on any team in the country, and he would make them better. Add in all the NBA hype and projected early draft spot. No doubt to me...Ja Morant is a first teamer. I might argue that playing for a small school made it harder for him to be noticed, since they are not on ESPN every week.
April 4, 20197 yr Morant will be better in the NBA than he was in college. More open floor and better players around him.
April 5, 20197 yr KY ties have nothing to do with Morant being a 1st team AA. His obvious skill set does though. Kid is off the charts good.
