Pre-Season All-America? John Wall is THAT Good


CBSSports.com has named its NCAA pre-season All-America Team and sitting on top of the list is Kentucky freshman point guard John Wall. Wall has not dribbled a ball during a college game, but he is listed as First Team Pre-Season All-America by CBS Sports. Why?

"The guy is that gifted, " says Gary Parrish of CBSSports.com.

John Wall is considered a Durant/Beasley-type freshman. On his chances at being named NCAA Player of the Year, Kentucky head coach John Calipari says:

"He's chasing it. He's absolutely chasing it."

John Wall is going to be something special to watch, folks. And, believe it or not, basketball season is right around the corner!
