Three high-scoring guards, two productive forwards and a towering post player headline this year’s Class B boys basketball all-state team, as selected by the South Dakota Basketball Coaches Association.

The all-state first team includes De Smet’s Grant Wilkinson, Wall’s Teelan Kjerstad, Sully Buttes’ Wesley Wittler, Viborg-Hurley’s Brady Schroedermeier, Castlewood’s Kamden Keszler and Freeman’s David Walter.
