WACO, TX - MARCH 5: Taurean Prince #21 of the Baylor Bears celebrates after a made three-pointer against the West Virginia Mountaineers on March 5, 2016 at the Ferrell Center in Waco, Texas.
The Big 12 tournament begins on Wednesday, with Baylor basketball taking the court against Texas at 11:30 a.m. Thursday in Kansas City.
The Bears have seen success in the Big 12 tournament, but have always come just short down the stretch. However, this year's team has a chance to be the one that finally comes through.
Even if this year's team plays its best basketball at the right time, the road will not be easy.
