Syracuse guard Buddy Boeheim named to preseason All-ACC First Team

Senior Syracuse Orange men’s basketball guard Buddy Boeheim has been named to the preseason All-ACC First Team. The 6-foot-5 guard picked up 68 votes, but finished third in ACC Player of the Year voting behind Duke’s Paolo Banchero and Virginia Tech’s Keve Aluma.

Boeheim is the leading returning scorer in the ACC. He averaged 17.8 points per game a season ago and led Syracuse to the Sweet 16.

Boeheim has been included in preseason honors beyond the conference as well, selected as a First Team All-American in publications like Athlon Sports and ESPN.
