James Anderson Leaving Early

James Anderson will become the 2nd player in the Big-12, and 3rd overall to declare his intentions to leave school early for the NBA Draft today. He made his decision at a press conference at Gallagher-Iba Arena following Oklahoma State's first round loss to Georgia Tech. Anderson joins Craig Brackins from Iowa State and Charles Garcia from Seattle in early departures so far this year. Expect many more to come in the following weeks after more teams are eliminated from their post-seasons. I expect with the loss of Anderson and Obi Muoluelo, Oklahoma State will be at the bottom of the Big-12 next year, a small step up from Iowa State and Nebraska.
