A Season of Dominance
In the annals of college basketball, few players have left as indelible a mark as Michael Beasley did during his freshman year at Kansas State University. The 2007-2008 season was a showcase of his prodigious talent, as he averaged an astounding 26.5 points per game, ranking third nationally, and led the nation with 12.5 rebounds per game. Beasley’s prowess on the court was further underscored by his record-breaking 28 double-doubles, surpassing the previous freshman record held by Carmelo Anthony.
A Record-Breaking Performance
On February 23, 2008, Beasley etched his name into the history books with a career-high 44 points in a thrilling 86-92 contest against Baylor. This remarkable feat not only set a new Big 12 single-game scoring record but also solidified Beasley’s reputation as an unstoppable force on the court. His shooting accuracy was nothing short of exceptional, with a field goal percentage of 53.7% and an impressive 39.5% from beyond the arc.
