Jan 24, 2007 11:25 AM

Kevin Durant, the heralded freshman out of Texas, is reportedly growing tired of the constant questions regarding whether or not he will declare for the 2007 NBA Draft.

"That's a question that can't be answered until the season is over with," head coach Rick Barnes said. "We don't want to be disrespectful to [reporters], but sooner or later we're going to have to shut it down a little bit because he doesn't want to deal with it, and I don't blame him."

Oden Scores Career-High 29 Points

Jan 21, 2007 1:20 AM

Greg Oden scoring 29 points, hitting 12 of 13 shots from the field to lead No. 7 Ohio State to an 82-63 victory over Iowa on Saturday night.

"He's a super talent," Iowa coach Steve Alford said of the 7-foot freshman. "What makes him very, very special is he can get 29 (points) and 10 (rebounds) and win, or he can get 6 and 10 and win -- and he's going to feel the same. It's never been about points. It's never been about any kind of selfish ambition with Greg. It's always been about winning."

Mario Boggan set career highs with 37 points and 20 rebounds and hit the game-winning 3-pointer with 3.2 seconds left in the third overtime to lift the Oklahoma State to a 105-103 victory over Texas on Tuesday night.

"When it left my hand, I knew it was going to go in. It felt like it was going in," said Boggan. "Not to be just saying that, it actually felt good coming off my hand."

Kevin Durant, who had 37 points, tying his career high, and 12 rebounds himself, put Texas on top with a three-point play with 10.5 seconds left, but there was still time for Boggan.
