Notes:

The AP poll does not release a final poll after the NCAA tournament, where as the Coaches Poll does.

Colspan=2	Consensus All-Americans
First Team	Second Team
RJ Barrett – Duke Zion Williamson – Duke	None

To earn "consensus" status, a player must win honors based on a point system computed from the four different all-America teams. The point system consists of three points for first team, two points for second team and one point for third team. No honorable mention or fourth team or lower are used in the computation. The top five totals plus ties are first team and the next five plus ties are second team.^[44]
