Four Cowboy basketball players have hit that magic number in Laramie

Former University of Wyoming basketball star Justin James was selected in the second round of the 2019 NBA Draft Thursday night by the Sacramento Kings.

Of the 29 former Cowboys selected in the NBA Draft, five were first-round picks: Charles Bradley, Bill Garnett, Erik Leckner, Theo Ratliff, and Larry Nance, Jr.

Kenny Sailors, Flynn Robinson, Fennis Dembo, and Larry Nance, Jr. are all Wyoming legends, but Justin James could be the best all-around player in Cowboys basketball history.

The 6-21 Cowboys would need to win each of their four remaining games, the Mountain West Conference Tournament, and the NCAA Tournament to avoid a share of the record.

Fresno State made nine 3-pointers in the second half and pulled away from the Wyoming Cowboys for a 75-62 win in Laramie Wednesday night.

For the first time since 1998, the Denver Pioneers won a men’s college basketball game in Laramie with a 90-87 overtime victory over the Wyoming Cowboys Tuesday night.
