Three state championships at Washington High School. The Trester Mental Attitude Award. A selection to the McDonald’s All-American game. And now, Mr. Basketball.

On Sunday, The Indianapolis Star named IU signee and Washington senior Cody Zeller to the state’s most prestigious honor, Mr. Basketball.

Zeller joins his brothers — Luke (Notre Dame) and Tyler (North Carolina) — as the third member of his family to win the award. He was also the third Zeller to play in the McDonald’s All-American game.

He’s the 26th Mr. Basketball to sign with Indiana.
