BIG 12/TOP 25 ROUNDUP
Pressey leads MU past K-State The Associated Press
C O L U M B I A , M O . — Pay no attention to the glove Phil Pressey wears on his shooting hand to protect a broken ring finger. The Missouri freshman guard certainly doesn’t. Pressey was 3-for-5 from three-point range and had 13 points in No. 13 Missouri’s 7559 whipping of Kansas State on Monday night. He’s 7-for-9 on three-pointers the last two games and had a big allaround game, too, with four steals and three assists in 24 minutes off the bench. “He was like a little gnat out there, even to the point where one guy pushed over,” coach Mike Anderson said. “For a guy that’s been out for almost three weeks to play the way he’s played the last two games, he’s got a chance to be a special player.” Pressey, son of former NBA player Paul Pressey, had a strong followup after scoring a career-best 16 points in an overtime loss at Texas A&M
on Saturday. He puts up shots with confidence. “I don’t hope it goes in, I expect it to go in,” Pressey said. “So if I miss one, I keep shooting, and if make it, it’s the same thing.” Marcus Denmon scored 10 of his 14 points in the second half, and the Tigers (16-3, 2-2 Big 12) forced Kansas State into a season-worst 24 turnovers. Missouri led by 15 at the half and surged again after the Wildcats cut the gap to three with just over nine minutes to go. Kansas State was outscored 17-4 in the last 7:15. “You can’t dig yourself such a big hole,” Kansas State coach Frank Martin said. “We were pathetic defensively in the first half. We weren’t much better on offense.” Jacob Pullen had 16 points, and Jordan HenriquezRoberts added 14 for Kansas State (13-6, 1-3), which has dropped three of four. The Wildcats were held scoreless for nearly five minutes in the second half.
