Wolfpack Scores The Most Big Macs

LEWIS (Michael Beswick/The Republican)

And we don’t mean in that “do you want fries with that” sort of way, but in the McDonald’s All-American basketball team where Duke and North Carolina typically dominate the hamburger helpers.

N.C. State leads the way with three All-American recruits: point guard Tyler Lewis of Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.), shooting guard Rodney Purvis of Upper Room Christian (Raleigh, N.C.) and small forward T.J. Warren of Brewster Academy (Wolfeboro, N.H.). Kentucky and Arizona claim two selections apiece, while no other college currently has multiple recruits selected to the game.

Duke has one in shooting guard Rasheed Sulaimon and UNC has one in point guard Marcus Paige. Neither team currently has pressing needs at those particular positions.
