University of Louisville guard Carlik Jones has been honored on the 2020-21 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Division I All-District first team, as selected by NABC-member head coaches in NCAA Division I.

A first team All-ACC selection, Jones is the only player in the ACC to rank among the top six in scoring (16.8 ppg, 6th in the ACC), assists (4.5 apg, 4th), assists/turnovers ratio (2.18, 4th) and free throw percentage (.815, 3rd).

He is also among the ACC leaders in steals (1.4, 12th), field goal percentage (.402, 15th) and rebounding (4.9, 36th).

Jones scored his 1,800th career point at North Carolina on Feb. 20 when he led the Cardinals with 13 points and a season-high four steals. Combined with his time at Louisville and Radford, Jones has 101 career double-figure scoring efforts, including 41 of his last 42 games (18 of 19 at UofL). He is the first person in Louisville history to reach double figures in his first 17 games at Louisville.

The 6-1, 185-pound Cincinnati, Ohio product is 14th in the nation in career assists among active players with 554 (85 at Louisville, 469 at Radford) and is 17th nationally among active career scorers with 1,871 points (319 at UofL, 1,552 at Radford).

Jones is only the third Cardinal to earn first team all-conference honors in Louisville's seven years in the ACC, joining Jordan Nwora (2020) and Donovan Mitchell (2017). Jones received the third-highest votes and finished tied for second in the conference player of the year vote.
