All SEC Team: Pre-Conference play

Tomorrow, the SEC finally kicks off conference play with Tennessee squaring off with LSU and Vandy taking to the road to face Alabama. But before we all get too exited about the upcoming conference play, let’s take a look at who fills out the “All-SEC” team up to this point.   Point Guard   Jordan Clarkson-Missouri

• Minutes per game-33.1
• Points per game-19.3
• Rebounds per game-3.5
• Assists per game-4.1

  Jordan Clarkson shot out of the gates this season with solid assist numbers to compliment his dominant scoring efforts. His confidence is clear with Clarkson now being the go-to-guy, which is evident through his 19.3 points per game. If Clarkson can keep up this fiery scoring streak along with his 4.1 assists per game, you could very easily hear his name called in the upcoming NBA Draft Lottery.   Backup PG-Trevor Releford-Alabama   Shooting Guard   Jordan McRae-Tennessee

• Minutes per game-29.8
• Points per game-18.9
• Rebounds per game-3.2
• Assists per game-2.6

  Jordan McRae is another one of those guys that always finds a way to put up lots of points. He has scored double digits in all but one showing against Morehead State and has been doing it in multiple ways. Despite the Vols already having four losses, this team could be very dangerous during conference and tourney play on the shoulder's of McRae.   Backup SG-Chris Denson-Auburn   Small Forward   Casey Prather-Florida

• Minutes per game-29.5
• Points per game-17.3
• Rebounds per game-5.8
• Assists per game-2.1

  Casey Prather has been the do-it-all guy for the Gators thus far this season. He leads the team significantly in points and field goal percentage and .610 along with hitting free throws and three pointers. Of course conference play will pose another challenge for Prather, but up to this point he has imposed his will on the offensive side of the ball for Florida.   Backup SF-KT Harrell-Auburn   Power Forward   Julius Randle-Kentucky

• Minutes per game-29.6
• Points per game-18.1
• Rebounds per game-10.6

  Is there any question as to why Julius Randle made the cut? His dominance has been displayed against every opponent this season including Baylor and Michigan State with the way he imposes his will around the rim. What makes Randle even more special is the attention he draws from every player on the court which helps the other stars surrounding him produce at a higher level. With some experience and maturity under his belt, Julius escalating his game even further is a sure thing.   Backup-Jarnell Stokes-Tennessee   Center   Johnny O’Bryant III-LSU

• Minutes per game-29.8
• Points per game-14.6
• Rebounds per game-7.5

  Johnny O’Bryant III has become an absolute beast in the paint. After racking up double digit scoring numbers in 10 of LSU’s 12 games, he has become LSU’s leading scorer to compliment his 7.5 rebounds per game. He has struggled with turnovers at times but his ability to score and rebound dominantly make up for that quite well. The combination of Johnny O’Bryant III and Jordan Mickey in the post for LSU is sure to make some noise come conference play.   Backup-Willie Cauley-Stein-Kentucky     @CodyDanielKSR
