Dean Wade has never played better.
The junior Kansas State forward is coming off his best two-game stretch in a Wildcat uniform, and he has the look of a player who is ready to keep producing.
His 17 points and nine rebounds against George Washington helped K-State take third place at the Las Vegas Invitational. His 25 points and 11 rebounds allowed K-State to hold off Oral Roberts on Wednesday at Bramlage Coliseum. Now, Wade wants to lead the Wildcats to their first road win of the season, at Vanderbilt on Sunday.
“The coaches just expect that of me,” Wade said.
