FAYETTEVILLE, Ark.- Two Razorback basketball signees, Nick Smith Jr. and Jordan Walsh, have been selected as McDonald’s All-Americans.
Smith and Walsh will be joining 22 other players from across the nation for the game. This is the first time since 1988 that two Razorback signees have made the team.
In 2021, Smith, a 6’5” guard out of North Little Rock, averaged 25 points per game. Smith was recently listed as the top incoming freshman and a top-three draft prospect for 2023 NBA Draft.
Walsh, a 6’7” forward out of Cedar Hills, Texas, has been ranked in the top 10 of the 2022 recruiting class by ESPN.
The 2022 McDonald’s All-American game will be played on Mar. 29 at Chicago’s Wintrust Arena. The game will be aired at 8 p.m. CDT on ESPN.
