DES MOINES, Iowa — CBS, ESPN and NBC have Arkansas freshman guards Nick Smith Jr. and Anthony Black among the top 10 picks in this summer’s NBA draft.
The eighth-seeded Razorbacks , who face top-seeded Kansas in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at 4:15 p.m. Saturday in Wells Fargo Arena, also have something else vital this time of year: a little momentum courtesy of a double-digit victory. “I don’t think we’ll feel pressure going into the Kansas game,” Musselman said. “We know that this is a team that is the defending champion and No. 1 seed. Our guys are smart – they’re on Twitter and Instagram. They know what we’re playing against, and we have incredible respect for .”
Smith, who’s from Jacksonville, Ark., scored a combined 50 points in consecutive games against Alabama and Georgia in late February.
