Two Wildcats Headline Big 12 All-Tournament Selections

Although they are a deep team, they still have their stars, and those are Jaden Bradley and Brayden Burries. The Wildcats duo made the Big 12 all-tournament team. They are the only team in the conference to have more than one player on the team.

Jaden Bradley

The Big 12 Player of the Year claimed his rightful spot on the all-tournament team. His three-game span saw key playmaking, team player, and a game-winning shot. With how deep this team is, he does not have to light up the stat sheet every night; he did just what his team needed him to do.

Bradley averaged 12 points, four rebounds, and four assists in the tournament. The senior guard had his leadership on full display and was the floor general throughout the tournament. When his team needed him the most, he drained a contested fadeaway jumper at the buzzer to defeat Iowa State.

Brayden Burries

Burries joined his running mate on the All-Tournament team, and he had a fantastic two games. He did have a stinker against the Cyclones, where he shot 0-7 from the field, but his two other games were too good to ignore.

He scored 21 points versus UCF and the Cougars. He had huge personal runs to jump-start his team in both games. The freshman guard has come a long way this season, and it is only fitting that he found himself on the all-tournament team.

The Cyclone game may have actually proved more good than bad, as it showed Burries does not lack confidence. That will be huge coming into the NCAA Tournament. This Wildcat team can withstand a poor shooting performance if Burries picks it up on the other end, which he definitely can.

That is what makes him such a great player; if he has a cold shooting night, he can still lock down the opposing team's guard. Burries and Bradley will look to lead the Wildcats to a deep NCAA Tournament run.
