As the 2022-23 college basketball season quickly nears a close following a riveting NCAA Tournament, the ESPN College GameDay crew is sharing some of their final insights. And the crew has voted on an All-NCAA Tournament Team of five players.

Naturally, most of the selections are of players who had the chance to prove themselves through multiple rounds.

In fact, all but one of the players come from a team that was in the Final Four, with Kansas State guard Markquis Nowell the only one who was not on a Final Four team.

UConn, which will play in tonight’s NCAA Tournament championship game against San Diego State, had multiple selections on the team.

So without further ado, here is the ESPN College GameDay crew’s All-NCAA Tournament Team. The number listed in parentheses is the number of GameDay crew members who voted for the player (with a maximum of four).

All-NCAA Tournament Team

F Adama Sanogo – UConn (4)

The UConn star forward has posted double-doubles in three of his five games leading into Monday night’s title game, and he’s been impressive every step of the way for the Huskies. He scored 21 points and had 10 rebounds in a Final Four win over Miami. He also scored 28 points in the opening round against Iona and 24 points in the Round of 32 against Saint Mary’s. He has averaged 20.2 points and 9.8 rebounds so far.

G Markquis Nowell – Kansas State (4)

Nowell was a scoring and assist machine for the Wilcats in their run to the Elite Eight, posting some truly absurd numbers. He scored 30 points in the loss to Florida Atlantic in the Elite Eight after scoring 27 against Kentucky in the Round of 32. He also dished out 19 assists in Kansas State’s thrilling overtime win over Michigan State. He averaged 23.5 points and 13.5 assists per game.

G Jordan Miller – Miami (4)

Miller helped power the backcourt for Miami, which also had some other solid contributors. He managed to score 27 points in the Elite Eight against Texas, and he also recorded a double-double in the loss to UConn in the Final Four. In five games, Miller averaged 15.4 points and 6.4 rebounds per game.

G Alijah Martin – Florida Atlantic (3)

Martin was a force in the backcourt on a Florida Atlantic team that rotated a ton of players. He scored 26 points in the team’s Final Four loss to San Diego State, and he scored in double figures in all but one of the tournament games, scoring nine against Tennessee. He averaged 15.2 points and 4.4 rebounds in the tournament.

G Jordan Hawkins – UConn (2)

Hawkins has excellent for UConn in reaching the title game, hitting at least three 3-pointers in every single NCAA Tournament game. He scored 24 points in a Sweet 16 win over Arkansas and 20 in an Elite 8 win against Gonzaga. Hawkins isn’t a major rebounding presence but has averaged 16.4 points for the Huskies.
