KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) announced the 2020 NABC Coaches' Division I All-America teams Tuesday. Gonzaga's Filip Petrusev was named second team All-American. Selected and voted on by member coaches of the NABC in Division I, these student-athletes represent the most outstanding basketball players across America.
 
Petrusev was joined by Devon Dotson (Kansas), Malachi Flynn (San Diego State), Myles Powell (Seton Hall) and Cassisus Winston (Michigan State) on the second team.
 
Petrusev was named the 2020 West Coast Conference Player of the Year. He became the first underclassman to receive the honor since 1981. He was named to the national ballot for the John R. Wooden Award, which is presented to the nation's best player. He is also a finalist for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Center of the Year Award.
 
Petrusev averaged a team-high 17.5 points per game, which ranked third in the West Coast Conference. He topped the league shooting 56.2 percent from the field. The sophomore was second in the WCC grabbing 7.9 rebounds per game. He was ninth blocking 0.9 shots each game.
 
In conference play, Petrusev scored 18.5 points, while shooting 57.8 percent from the field. This season, he had nine double-doubles this season, which ranked second in the WCC. The Belgrade, Serbia, native reached double-digit scoring in all but two games this season. He reached at least 20 points a team-high nine times in 2019-20, including a career-high 31 points in a win at Santa Clara.
 
Petrusev drew 7.7 fouls per 40 minutes, which was the fourth-most in the nation. His 238 free-throw attempts rank as the fourth-most taken in the country. Petrusev was named the WCC Player of the Week three times during the Zags' 31-2 season.
