1992 game

The game was telecast live by CBS. The event took place on Easter; while several players were undecided at the time of selection, only Othella Harrington had still not made a choice about his college career when the game started: Bright, Edwards, Lloyd and Wallace all committed in April, just a few days before the All-American game. Since the game was played in Atlanta, the local favorite was Carlos Strong of Athens, Georgia, one of the top-ranked recruits at the time: he had a good performance, scoring 19 points. Harrington received the MVP award after 19 points and 21 rebounds; other players who starred were Corliss Williamson, who also had a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds; Jason Kidd, who entertained the crowd with his passing and handling skills, ending the game with 12 points and 6 rebounds; Tony Delk, who scored 15 points; and Michael Lloyd, who scored 17. Of the 20 players, 6 went on to play at least 1 game in the NBA.
