The Associated Press 2024-25 All-America men's basketball team with statistics through regular-season and conference tournaments: Cooper Flagg, Duke, 6-9, 205, Freshman; Newport, Maine; 18.9 points, 7.

The 16-team bracket for the College Basketball Crown is set! Check out the tournament bracket and a complete guide to all 16 teams.

The First Four has been around since 2011 and features the last four automatic qualifiers and last four at-large bids playing to whittle the field from 68 to 64. This year will see two 16-seed vs. 16-seed matchups and two 11-seed vs. 11-seed matchups, but don’t write these games off because they involve double-digit seeds.

Great coaching matchups, chances for redemption, mascot shots and highly ranked teams make the opening weekend highly anticipated.
