On Thursday morning, the Southeastern Conference office announced the coaches preseason All-SEC teams and two University of Alabama basketball players made the list.
Senior guard John Petty Jr. was named to First Team All-SEC, while senior wing Herb Jones earned Second Team All-SEC honors.
Both players entered their names into the 2020 NBA draft, but elected to return to Tuscaloosa earlier this offseason.
Petty, who finished last season on the All-SEC second team, averaged 14.5 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. He also led the conference in three-point field goal percentage at 44 percent.
On the other hand, Jones was a member of the SEC All-Defensive Team last year after a junior campaign that saw 7.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.3 steals a game.
