In his postgame press conference, Oklahoma State coach Mike Boynton Jr. was asked by a reporter about how Smart drew the technical foul out of Stevenson, as one stated that the pair was ‘jawing a little bit every time (Stevenson) made a shot.’ “I wasn’t really aware. I was so locked into the game. Thank you Marcus. Another assist for Oklahoma State,” Boynton Jr said.

Adrian Wojnarowski: ESPN Sources: The Detroit Pistons have landed on a decision to select Oklahoma State’s Cade Cunningham with the No. 1 pick in tonight’s NBA Draft (ESPN and ABC at 8 PM ET).

Among several ball-handlers who will come off the board early in the July 29 draft, Suggs, 19, offers the combination of tantalizing talent and NBA readiness that could make him the ideal selection for the Warriors. As one NBA scout said, “He’s not going past four.” Most scouts and draft experts believe Oklahoma State’s Cade Cunningham, the Big 12 Player of the Year and a finalist for the Wooden Award, will be the top pick. But after Cunningham, it’s anyone’s guess how the rest of the top five shakes out between Suggs, USC’s Evan Mobley and the G League Ignite’s Jalen Green and Jonathan Kuminga. The Warriors own Minnesota’s top-three protected first-round pick, which currently has a 60% chance of conveying as No. 4 or 5 and giving Golden State a chance to draft one of these players.

Cade Cunningham announced Thursday that he will enter the NBA draft after a dynamic freshman season for Oklahoma State that saw him named a first-team AP All-American. "I see them as more human now than I used to," Cunningham said. "I've been looking at those guys since I was a sophomore in high school. Those are the guys I've got to try to outwork right now."

The only real issue here is that he’s been a bit of an inconsistent shooter throughout his career. But a source at Oklahoma State told me that he’s come to preseason workouts and been the team’s second-best shooter behind 3-point marksman Ferron Flavors. If Cunningham is really a shooter now, it’s kind of a wrap for opponents because there isn’t really an easy way to stop him. I’d bet on Cunningham averaging something in the ballpark of 16 points, seven rebounds and seven assists at Oklahoma State this season, and being in the mix to win the national player of the year award. He is the big lead ballhandler that everyone is looking for, plus he has a real winner’s mentality that consistently leads to positive team play and good results.

Is Jawun Evans the draft’s most underrated point guard? “I do feel like I was underrated because Oklahoma State is a smaller school than those other schools and so I feel like that has a big thing to do with it,” Evans told Basketball Insiders. “I’ve been underrated my whole life, but I’m always going to come out and be on top.”
