Marcus Smart wants to see Andrew Wiggins play first
Published on October 23, 2013 by Scott Shirley · No CommentsRight now Oklahoma State star Marcus Smart is the best player in the Big 12. Threatening to overtake his is freshman Andrew Wiggins of Kansas. Wiggins has been hyped forever now, and Smart wants to see him play before he believes in the hype.
“A lot of people are saying he’s the best player now in college basketball,” Smart said of Wiggins during the Big 12′s annual media day Tuesday. “All I’m saying is how can you be the best player in something you haven’t even played yet?”
“I know if it was me,” Smart said, “don’t just give it to me. At least make me earn it. All the hype, good for him. Congratulations to him, don’t get me wrong. I’m not taking anything away from Andrew Wiggins, anything like that. He’s a good player. I hope he does well.”
Both Smart and Wiggins should battle for Big 12 Player of the Year and their teams should battle for the Big 12 Championship.
