2024 marks the third consecutive year Wake Forest has had a First Team honoree.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Wake Forest junior guard Hunter Sallis has earned himself a spot on the Atlantic Coast Conference All-League First Team.
For the third consecutive season, Wake Forest has had a First Team honoree for the postseason awards. Sallis joins Tyree Appleby (2023) and Alondes Williams (2022) as All-ACC First Team selections in the Steve Forbes era.
This also marks the first time since 2003, 2004 and 2005 that Wake Forest has had a First Team honoree for three straight years. Sallis, Appleby and Williams join the likes of Josh Howard ('03), Justin Gray ('04) and Chris Paul ('05).
Sallis leads the Deacs in scoring for the season, averaging 18.3 points per game. He is second in the ACC during league play, with an average of 18.5 points per ACC contest. That mark is behind just RJ Davis of North Carolina, the ACC Player of the Year.
The Nebraska native is also fourth in league play in field goal percentage, shooting an efficient 50.6 clip from the field during ACC games. He is third in the league in minutes played, with an average of 34.83 minutes per ACC game.
Saturday's win over Clemson marked Sallis' 100th college game, as he led the Deacs in points (22), rebounds (7) and assists (4). It marked his 15th 20-point game of the season and 10th in ACC play.
