WACO, Texas - Baylor men's basketball was well represented on the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District team with Adam Flagler and Keyonte George honored by NABC-member coaches across NCAA Division I.
Flagler was named to the All-District 8 First Team, while George made the second team. This marks the fifth-straight season Baylor has had a player make an all-district team and the fourth-straight year with multiple players represented.
Flagler was honored by the NABC for the second-straight season after making the District 8 Second Team last season. A unanimous first-team selection by the league’s coaches, Flagler has been Baylor’s primary point guard this season, meaning 12 of Baylor’s last 13 starting point guards under Scott Drew have earned All-Big 12 recognition.
The Duluth, Ga., native is tied for the conference lead in three-point field goals per game (2.6) while finishing third in assist-turnover ratio (2.7) and second in three-point field goal percentage (.403). Flagler led the team in assists 22 times this year, 16 more than his next closest teammates.
Named the Big 12 Freshman of the Year, while also being selected to the All-Newcomer and All-Freshman teams, George is sixth in the conference in scoring (15.8), fifth in three-point field goals made (2.5) and seventh in free throw percentage (.797). George holds the program record for most 20-point games by a freshman (12), and the most three-pointers made by a freshman (76).
The Lewisville, Texas, native is just 19 points away (490) from BU’s freshman scoring record of 509 points set by Aaron Bruce in 2004-05.
