The National Basketball Association has gone international. It happened years ago. But the tuned out tuning-in to Thursday night’s first round of the NBA Draft witnessed a shocker, an überraschen even.
The Breitbart Sports All-American 2013, 2014 and 2015 teams proved prophetic in March Madness brackets, and the 2016 edition announced below starts with the heated debate over whether Buddy Hield or Denzel Valentine rates as the National Player of the Year.
The emergence of Duke’s Grayson Allen in the Value Add Top 5 in a month in which he tripped two opponents provides another example of why The New York Post quoted Blue Devils point guard Jay Williams as saying, “No other black player from any other school is hated as much as a white player from Duke. None.”
Freshman are terrible basketball players. They commit stupid turnovers, take dumb shots, and fail to rotate on defense.
No. 1 ranked Buddy Hield outscored No. 2 ranked Ben Simmons 32-14 to lead No. 1 Oklahoma to a last-second 77-75 road win at LSU.
If you are one of 541,064 boys high school players, this is probably your last level of competitive play.
For the third straight year Breitbart Sports releases the first basketball All-American team.
