Oklahoma State Guard- #12 Javon Small
Oklahoma State has struggled so far this season in a very challenging Big 12 conference. Javon Small has been one of the few bright spots for this team thus far. He has had a good season and has helped this team in many ways. The Cowboys' guard stands 6'3'' and 195 lbs. He currently leads the team in average scoring and assists. The junior has been an impact player for this team and will continue to be their biggest player. Small is a true two-way player who can score and play defense. TCU must match his intensity to win this matchup.
Small is a very talented guard who can create plays and shoot almost anywhere on the court. The Cowboys will need him to have his three-point shot on to win this game. If TCU can take his shot away from him, the Frogs will have a great chance at this game. However, Small is not a selfish player, so look for him to move the ball around and try to find some momentum in this game. Small will be looking to pull his team out of a five-game losing streak.
Other Players To Watch For:
- Junior Guard- #5 Quinn Williams
- Leads team in average rebounds (6.1) and steals (1.4)
- Freshman Center- #23 Brandon Garrison
- Leads team in average blocks (1.6)
- Senior Guard- #1 Bryce Thompson
- Second on the team in scoring (12.7)
