The 2011 PARADE Magazine All-American Teams have been selected and 40 players have been honored. A prestigious All-American list, the teams put out by PARADE are usually quite good, but some of the selections on this year's squad are head scratching. It is more of what teams the players are on rather than who is included in the 40 that is confusing. Regardless, have a look below at those players who were chosen by the magazine, per the list provided on Hoopniks.
