One of the best point guards in Iowa State history tacked on another accolade in his senior season Sunday afternoon.

Monté Morris earned a unanimous selection to the All-Big 12 First Team, voted on by the league’s coaches, to lead Iowa State in the conference awards. He was one of three players who earned an unanimous selection to the conference’s top team.

Naz Mitrou-Long earned Second Team honors, while Deonte Burton was placed on the Third Team. Matt Thomas was selected as an honorable mention. 

Morris, Iowa State’s all-time steals and assists leader, has taken it up a notch from his 2015-16 campaign, when he earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors. The Flint, Michigan, native is averaging 16.2 points, 6.2 assists and 4.6 rebounds in his 35.5 minutes per game. 

His assist-to-turnover ratio of 6.17 is more than 2.0 better than second place. In Big 12 play, Morris holds a 7.9 assist-to-turnover ratio, far and away the best in the conference. 

In December, Morris recorded the fifth triple-double in program history with a 17-point, 10-rebound and 10-assist performance against The Citadel in December. He has almost reached the triple-double threshold multiple times through the Big 12 season. 

Mitrou-Long struggled to start the season, but a 37-point performance against Drake in December catapulted his season. He is averaging 16.0 points and 4.7 rebounds per game. 

Burton didn’t reach his double-double average threshold that coach Steve Prohm challenged him to at the beginning of the season, but he still impressed nonetheless. He is averaging 14.4 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game. 

Thomas has been dealing with bone spurs in his foot all season, which hampered his play at times, but he managed to burst on the scene in a few games. Against Kansas State on Jan. 24, Thomas had seven 3-pointers, just three shy of the single-game program record. 

He is averaging 12.2 points — 2.6 3-pointers — and 3.9 rebounds per game while shooting 43.6 percent from beyond the arc. 

Iowa State’s postseason will start at 11:30 a.m. Thursday in Kansas City against Oklahoma State. The Cyclones finished the season in a three-way tie for second place in the Big 12. But West Virginia and Baylor grabbed the No. 2 and No. 3 seed, respectively, via the three-way tiebreaker. 

In addition to the conference tournament, the Cyclones’ NCAA Tournament hopes look promising. 

ESPN has Iowa State as a No. 6 seed in Milwaukee against Wake Forest or Vanderbilt. CBS has Iowa State as a No. 7 seed in Indianapolis against Marquette. USA Today has Iowa State as a No. 6 seed in Milwaukee against Syracuse or Illinois.
