Add another preseason honor to the heaping pile for Oklahoma State freshman phenom Cade Cunningham. He was added to the preseason watch list for the Bob Cousy Award, it was announced Monday.
The trophy is presented annually to the nation’s top collegiate point guard by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Cunningham joins three other Big 12 PGs on the list of 20 — Baylor’s Jared Butler, Kansas’ Marcus Garrett and Matt Coleman III of Texas.
No Cowboy has ever won the award, but Jawun Evans and Marcus Smart also made the watch list with Smart being a finalist in 2013.
