Before stepping off the bench for a career performance Friday night, Leyton Hammonds picked a choice seat on the Cowboys bench.
Right next to the injured Phil Forte.
“I made sure I sat by him, just to take notes and see what he has to say,” said Hammonds. “He’s a captain, on and off the court. And even though he’s not playing, he’s telling guys what to do and trying to help us so we can be successful. He’s still our captain.”
So Forte is still having an impact for Oklahoma State.
Still, the Cowboys would much rather have it come on the court.
