Buckingham Named NABC First Team All-Central Region

DURANT, Okla. – Southeastern senior forward Kevin Buckingham has been named a First Team All-Central Region selection by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
 
Buckingham, a native of Keller, Texas, adds to his growing list of 2020 honors after already picking up his second-straight Academic All-American award and earning second team D2CCA All-Central Region honors.
 
Over the 2019-20 season he has averaged 21.0 ppg while shooting 56.4 percent from the field and pulling down 7.4 rebounds per game while helping the team to a 23-8 record and a second-straight trip to the NCAA Division II Central Regional.
 
Buckingham recently became the fourth player in program history and just the second in Great American Conference history to pass the 2,000-point mark, ranking him fourth in SE history and second in GAC history in scoring.
 
On the boards he is the GAC all-time leader with 856 rebounds which is good for third all-time on Southeastern's list.
 
He also ranks in the top five in program history in steals and blocked shots and is among the GAC's top-10 in both.
