Jonathan Laurent stared directly at the basket after he caught the ball behind the 3-point line.
There were no Jayhawks in sight.
It was a clear opportunity at a 3-point shot. However, instead of shooting the 3-pointer, Laurent opted to drive to the basket for a contested shot.
Kansas’ Udoka Azubuike immediately blocked it.
The option to take a contested shot instead of a wide-open 3-pointer perfectly highlight the Oklahoma State men’s basketball team’s poor shooting performance in its 65-50 loss to Kansas on Monday.
OSU missed 12 of its 15 shots in the first 10 minutes of the game.
