BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The UAB men's basketball team has been recognized with the 2025-26 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Team Academic Excellence Award.
The NABC Team Academic Excellence Award recognizes programs that completed the 2025-26 academic year with a team GPA of 3.0 or higher. The NABC Honors Court recognizes junior, senior and graduate student men's basketball players who finished the academic year with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher. The UAB men's basketball team finished with a 3.3 GPA during the 2025-26 academic year.
"College basketball student-athletes do incredible things on the court, but their achievements in the classroom are equally worthy of celebration," said NABC Executive Director Craig Robinson. "Education is one of the NABC's core values, and the hundreds of programs and thousands of athletes represented on these awards reinforce the commitment to academic success that exists across all levels of our sport."
