Pick your all-state men's D-I basketball team from Iowa schools

Pick five players, regardless of position. (Statistics are through Wednesday's games).

Mine are Brackins, Eglseder, Gilstrap, Koch and Young. I wrestled with taking Farokhmanesh over one of the Iowa State players. I don't think Brackins has been all that wonderful, but he's been double-teamed more than any other in-state player. In fact, I don't know if any other in-state player has been double-teamed.

The candidates:

Kwadzo Ahelegbe, UNI guard: 10.5 points, 2.8 assists

Craig Brackins, Iowa State forward: 16.5 points, 8.5 rebounds

Jordan Eglseder, UNI center: 12.2 points, 7.5 rebounds

Ali Farokhmanesh, UNI guard: 9.7 points, 38.4 3-pointer percentage (63-of-164)

Aaron Fuller, Iowa forward: 9.5 points (12.6 points and 7.8 rebounds in Big Ten games), 6.0 rebounds

Diante Garrett, ISU guard: 9.1 points, 4.9 assists

Matt Gatens, Iowa guard: 12.5 points, 3.3 assists

Marquis Gilstrap, ISU forward: 14.9 points, 9.2 rebounds

Adam Koch, UNI forward: 12.4 points, 4.8 rebounds (Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year)

Eric May, Iowa forward: 9.1 points, 4.8 rebounds

Cully Payne, Iowa guard: 8.3 points, 3.8 assists

Adam Templeton, Drake forward: 10.0 points, 7.4 rebounds
