STILLWATER, Oklahoma -- Junior Oklahoma State guard James Anderson has been named to the midseason Naismith Trophy watch list.

The award, given annually to college basketball's best player, will be presented by the Atlanta Tipoff Club during the NCAA Men's Final Four in Indianapolis.

No Oklahoma State player has ever won the award. Last year, Oklahoma's Blake Griffin took home the trophy.

Oklahoma Sports's Kyle Dierking explored the odds of Anderson winning college basketball's most prestigious award.
