Elite 24 Awards

Posted Aug 29, 2011
Best Dancer: This was one of the tougher awards to judge, but after a long thought process we gave the nod to Mitch McGary, a senior forward at Brewster Academy (Wolfeboro, N.H.). His rendition of the “Cat Daddy” dance was a major hit with all of the players and gave him the slight advantage over Tony Parker and Anthony Bennett, a senior forward at Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.). “I do a little something,” McGary said. “I don’t know how good a dancer I am, but I just like to have fun.” Added Parker: “Yeah I’d have to say Mitch’s got this one.” (ESPN.com)
