Mashburn Jr. Collects NABC All-District First Team Honors

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) announced Tuesday that Temple graduate student guard Jamal Mashburn Jr. was named to the NABC All-District First Team.

An Oscar Robertson Midseason Watch List honoree, Mashburn Jr. averaged 22.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 23 games during his lone season in the Cherry and White. The Miami native ranked second nationally in scoring and led the American Athletic Conference before suffering a lower-body injury that forced him to miss nine of the final 10 games of the 2024-25 season.

A two-time AAC Player of the Week selection, Mashburn Jr. recorded 20-plus points in 16 contests and surpassed 30 points three times, including a career-best 34-point effort in a double-overtime victory over Charlotte. In 10 AAC games, he averaged 24.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists.

He was previously named to the All-AAC Second Team and the AAC All-Newcomer Team. At New Mexico, Mashburn Jr. was named to the NABC All-District First Team during his junior season in 2022-23.

This season, the NABC introduced a new model for its Division I district alignment, grouping schools by state instead of by conference. The modernized NABC Division I district alignment features 10 geographic regions, each encompassing multiple states. Every Division I school in each state belongs to that state's corresponding district.

The NABC Mid-Atlantic District includes all NCAA Division I programs (39) in Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington, D.C.

Mashburn Jr. becomes the first Owl to earn all-district first-team accolades since Quinton Rose in 2020.
