Former East Carolina Guard Javon Small on His Way to Oklahoma State
The Oklahoma State Cowboys have added a master facilitator to their roster, as former East Carolina point guard Javon Small announced Sunday afternoon he’s headed to Stillwater.
That brings into the fold a player who distributed 100 assists in only 18 games for the Pirates during the 2022-23 season. Divide that out, and it’s 5.6 assists per game. His dime total was more than anyone on the Cowboys roster last season. The 6-foot-2, 180-pound point guard logged a career-high 11 assists in a Dec. 2 meeting against Campbell.
Small can also fill it up, as evidenced by his breakout sophomore season that featured 15.8 points per game on just below 40% shooting. He connected on 46.5% of his attempts from within the arc. He managed 22.5 points in three games at the Gulf Coast Showcase en route to being named to the All-Tournament Team.
From South Bend, Ind., Small played a pair of seasons for the Pirates, averaging 9.3 points, 3.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds per contest. He’s shot it at a 37.7% clip from the field and very strong 86.4% mark at the free throw line.
Small has appeared in 34 total games over the course of his career so far. And he’ll have two years of eligibility remaining when he joins up with the Cowboys.
