How Current Atlanta Hawks Looked in March Madness
By Dallin Duffy
Jeff Teague
Jeff Teague had a celebrated college career, earning consensus All-American honors as well as being named the the 2009 All-ACC first team.
After failing to go dancing as a freshman he led his Demon Deacons to a 4th seed in his second and final season, but their season was prematurely ended by a 13 seed: Cleveland State. Teague took just seven shots after averaging 12 per game as a sophomore, finishing with just 10 points and 5 assists. He averaged 18.8 points per game that year.
Teague was out-played by future Miami Heat point guard Norris Cole, who scored 22 points for the Vikings in the upset.
Jeff Teague would then be drafted by the Atlanta Hawks with the 19th pick of the 2009 draft.
