C. D. McLees was an All-American basketball player at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1904–05.

The Helms Athletic Foundation, which began in 1936, retroactively named the All-American teams from 1905 to 1935. Between 1905 and 1929, the Helms All-American teams are considered to be consensus selections.
