Marcus Smart has been named the Gatorade Texas Basketball Player of the Year.

Smart led Marcus High School to a 39-2 record and a second-straight Class 5A state championship this past season.

Smart averaged 15.1 points, 9.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 2.8 steals and 1.3 blocks per game, and he took 43 charges.

Smart will attend Oklahoma State this fall.

Missouri defeated Baylor by a final score of 90-75 to win the 2012 Big 12 Tournament. 

Baylor advanced to the championship game after finally beating Kansas.

Kim English was named Tournament MVP, scoring 69 points over Missouri's three victories.

English was joined on the All-Tournament Team by teammate Phil Pressey, Baylor's Perry Jones II and Brady Heslip, and J'Covan Brown of Texas.

Le’Bryan Nash plans to return to Oklahoma State for his sophomore season. Nash previously estimated the odds of his return at 70 percent.

"When I was playing during that time, I thought we could make a big run and anything could happen and my name could pop up in the NBA draft," Nash said. "Now it's 100 percent I'm staying here. I'm going to be here next year. I believe we can win next year because of the talent. Everybody is coming back but Keiton (Page), so the experience and the talent are going to be there."

Nash said he won’t be influenced by people outside his inner circle.

"The only people I need to talk to are coach (Travis) Ford and all the coaching staff and my teammates and my mom and my mentor," Nash said. "That's the only people I need to talk to in my life about the NBA and whether I should stay or go and, right now, all of them are saying that I should stay in college.

"Me and coach Ford talked about it after I hurt my hand. He said 'I think it would be best for you to come back.' I think it would be best for me to come back. I really don't want to get picked in the second round or late first-round. I want to be a guy that is in the top 10."
