Opposition beware: junior center jeff Withey is falling on the scorer's table for possessions now.
Oklahoma State freshman guard Cezar Guerrero tried to up-fake Withey, who held his ground. A half-second later, when Guerrero took a shot, Withey soared at him with an extended right arm and blocked it. He tipped the ball to the sideline, beat Guerrero to the ball and threw it to his teammate, junior guard Travis Releford, as he fell on the score's table.
Withey ran from the scorer's table to the other end of the floor and demanded the ball. Once he got it, he drew two defenders and tossed a no-look, over-the-head pass to junior forward Kevin Young for the wide-open dunk.
It was this kind of hustle and skill from Withey, who finished with 18 points, a career-high 20 rebounds and seven blocks.
that propelled No. 7 Kansas to an 81-66 victory over Oklahoma State Saturday afternoon at Allen Fieldhouse.
"Teams focus on Thomas a lot," senior guard Tyshawn Taylor said of junior forward Thomas Robinson. "When Jeff is playing well, it gives us that extra threat."
With Withe飞ing all over the court for blocks, deflections, rebounds and points, Robinson reached 24 points and 14 rebounds, his 18th double-double, rather easily.
"I feel like I'm not even working to score anymore now with the way Jeff is playing," Robinson said.
Led by Withey's energy and production, the Jayhawks broke the game open early and led 51-24 going into halftime. However in the second half, perhaps because they felt comfortable with the lead, the Jayhawks played sloppily, committing 11 turnovers and succumbing to the Cowboys' full-court pressure.
