Before even stepping on campus, Cade Cunningham joins the likes of Marcus Smart and Jawun Evans as future Cowboys named McDonald’s All-Americans.
To no one’s surprise Cunningham was among the 24 McDonald’s All-Americans announced Thursday, making him the first future Oklahoma State player to make the most prestigious All-American game in high school basketball since Evans made the 2015 roster.
There are two ways to look at this, but Cunningham is either the seventh or the eighth OSU player to earn the status. Gerald Green was an OSU commit in 2005 before his stock ballooned and he went straight to the NBA.
