The Pac-12 released its men’s basketball preseason All-Conference teams at its annual media day in San Francisco on Tuesday.
Preseason All-Conference teams were created based on votes from media members who cover the conference.
The University of Arizona was represented three times with freshman guard Nico Mannion being selected as the program’s only First Team member. Freshman guard Josh Green was placed on the Second Team and redshirt senior center Chase Jeter was placed on the Honorable Mention list.
Arizona State junior guard Remy Martin was voted to the First Team and was the program’s sole selection.
