CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - Former men's basketball standout Malcolm Huckaby has been named Boston College's representative for the 2015 ACC Basketball Legends presented by New York Life.
The Legends will be recognized during the 2015 New York Life ACC Tournament, which will be held March 10-14 at the Greensboro Coliseum.

Huckaby played in 126 games at BC, including 106 as a starter.
