OSU basketball: Cowboys shake up starting lineup against Baylor

STILLWATER — Oklahoma State coach Mike Boynton is shaking things up again.

The Cowboys will start two freshmen Saturday morning against No. 2-ranked Baylor as Boynton searches for a spark to end a four-game losing streak.

Freshman point guard Avery Anderson III and freshman forward Kalib Boone will both start. Senior sharpshooter Thomas Dziagwa and sophomore forward Yor Anei will open the game on the bench.

Anderson has been the Cowboys’ most consistent player throughout Big 12 play, while Boone had a breakout performance Wednesday against Texas with 12 points and seven rebounds.
