It’s that time of year again!
A little over two hours ago, the McDonald’s All-American Game rosters were announced. Highlighting the group of 24 boys are Harrison Barnes, Jared Sullinger, Brandon Knight and a slew of other dudes who’ve been featured in SLAM Magazine’s PUNK section, as well as online in our PUNKS spot. One of the top high school end-of-season showcase games, this year’s McDonald’s Game will take the place in Columbus, Ohio, on March 31st.
Drum roll please! For the boys:
