Seth Curry named Sporting News All-American

With the release of the all-ACC teams, it's officially awards season. On that note, the Sporting News announced their all-America teams, and Duke's Seth Curry was a second-team selection.

Curry, who was also named ACC Player of the Week, ranks third in the ACC with 17.1 points per game and a .435 3-point shooting percentage. He's also second with 2.7 3-pointers per game and fifth with a .810 free throw percentage. Curry has scored at least 20 points in 16 games this season, including 11 of Duke's 18 ACC contests.

Due to a nagging right shin injury, Curry has rarely practiced this year. More on that in this story from last week.

There aren't nearly as many people interested in this as there are people interested in my opinions on the all-ACC teams, I know (even if people are interested in the latter just to disagree with me). But, I'm a firm believer in transparency, so, as a voter for the U.S. Basketball Writer's Association awards, I feel compelled to disclose my ballot.

Oscar Robertson Trophy (Player of the year): Victor Oladipo, Indiana
