Freddie Williams Frank Raposo The 2009 McDonald's All-American Boys Game was an All-star basketball game played on Wednesday, April 1, 2009, at the BankUnited Center in Coral Gables, Florida, home of the University of Miami Hurricanes. The game's rosters featured the highest rated high school boys graduating in 2009. The game was the 32nd annual version of the McDonald's All-American Game, first played in 1978.
The 48 players were selected from 2,500 nominees by a committee of basketball experts. Coach Morgan Wootten, who had more than 1,200 wins as head basketball coach at DeMatha High School, was chairman of the selection committee. UCLA coach John Wooden, who has been involved in the McDonald's All-American Games since its inception, served as chairman of the Games and as an advisor to the selection committee.
Proceeds from the 2009 McDonald's All American High School Basketball Games went to Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) of South Florida and its Ronald McDonald House program.
