The McDonalds All-American Game released its nominations for the coveted game that will be held on April 1. These nominations are just that. They aren’t the final names who will make the team. That list will be revealed later this month. But Illinois did have two of their three commitments make the nominations list.
Andre Curbelo
One of the bigger and more underrated players coming off the east coast is Andre Curbelo. He is a great snag by the Illini and is someone who could make the McDonald’s All-American game this spring.
Curbelo is a 6-foot, 170-pound point guard who suited up for Long Island Lutheran High School and resides in Brookville, New York.
