The NABC Honors Court, meanwhile, includes junior, senior and graduate student men's basketball players who finished the 2022-23 year with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher.

"It's great for members of our program to be recognized for achievements beyond the court and especially in the classroom," said Head Coach Dave Duke.
