Baylor defeated Kansas State 70-56 in the second round of the Big 12 Championship. Baylor senior guard Jayden Nunn led the Bears with 18 points, including 12 in the first half. Nunn's hot shooting helped Baylor build a 41-24 halftime lead.

N’Guessan, a forward who was spent the past three years at K-State, scored 20 points and he was far and away the best offensive weapon on his team. He also grabbed 10 rebounds for a double-double. Hawkins, a transfer from Illinois, was held to five points.
