🏀 TOURNEY TIME
There’s simply nothing like March.
The thrills. The agony. The excitement.
The OSU men’s hoops team is set to kick off action in the 2024 Big 12 Tournament this morning at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City. The Pokes will take on 12th-seeded UCF at 11:30 a.m.
Follow along with all the action at Big 12 Championship Central.
📈 STOCK UP
🔺 Cowboy Power. That’s grown man strength right there.
It’s a phrase uttered over and over again about former OSU star Christian Encarnacion-Strand. And now, he’s ready to put it on full display.
CES got his first taste last year with the Cincinnati Reds, seeing action in 63 games and getting over 200 at-bats last season.
This season, he’s expected to have a starting role in the Reds lineup after hitting over .300 in the final month of the 2023 season and finishing with 13 HRs and 37 RBIs last year.
In spring training, he has 2 HRs and two triples in 19 at-bats.
🔺 Small World. Not too shabby for a debut season in Stillwater.
ECU transfer and junior guard Javon Small made a big impact in his first year at OSU, leading the team in scoring (14.9 ppg) and assists (4.2). His play garnered the attention of the league as he was named All-Big 12 Honorable Mention this week.
The 6-foot-3 point guard handed out five-or-more assists 13 times this year and topped 20 points on five occasions, highlighted by a career-high 34-point outing in Saturday's finale at BYU.
🔺 The Comeback Kid. OSU fans saw this show in Stillwater.
Now the NBA is enjoying it in full force. After missing last season with a devastating injury, Cade Cunningham is back in full force with the Pistons.
Amongst players in their second full season, Cunningham ranks second in the league with 22.6 points per game, while also dishing out 7.5 assists and grabbing 4.2 rebounds a night.
Not too shabby for a comeback year, huh?
Even the most die hard Cowboy fans don’t know the full story
of the 2023 Oklahoma State Football season.
Until now.
OSU Max is excited to announce the upcoming premiere of a new original film – Resilience –
to bring fans behind closed doors and experience
the full picture of a historic football season.
“Resilience”, an OSU Max original, is AVAILABLE NOW!
