Know Your Foe: Oklahoma Basketball Players to Watch

Key players from the Sooners to watch when they take on the TCU Horned Frogs on Saturday.

#1 Jalen Hill

Three-star Forward from Las Vegas, Nevada. Senior

The 6-6 231 lbs. forward is not the largest forward out there, but he uses his large frame to be effective. Hill is an excellent defender and can cover almost any part of the court. He does not score a lot, but he definitely helps the team on defense. TCU needs to be aware of him because he is very quick on his feet and good at stealing the ball. The last time he faced the Frogs, he scored eight points. TCU will have to continue to keep an eye on him, because he can turn the offense on at any point.

Points	10.0
Rebounds	5.7
Assists	1.3
Field Goal %	51.0%

#35 Tanner Groves

Forward from Spokane, Washington. Senior

Tanner Groves is a unique big man. He stands at 6-10 235 lbs. Groves is a good shooter, especially from range. This makes him very special because most people his size are not great at shooting from the perimeter. He is also good at scoring in the inside, as well. Groves struggles with quick players, so TCU should be able to score in the paint due to the speed of the Horned Frog players. Groves had an off game versus TCU last time, however he can also get hot, especially if TCU does not block out. The Frogs need to repeat what they did last time to have a great chance against Groves and this team.

Points	10.0
Rebounds	5.7
Assists	1.3
Field Goal %	51.0%

#3 Otega Oweh

Four-star Guard from Somerset, New Jersey. Freshman

The 6-6 210 lb. guard has found his way to the starting lineup for the Sooners. Oweh is a big and physical guard who will drive hard to the paint, as well as take any shot on the court. Last time, TCU did a good job of guarding him. However, he is coming off his best game this season, and TCU has never seen him as a starter. The Frogs must keep him from driving into open spaces or else he could be dangerous.

Otega Oweh	2022-23 Season Stats Average
Points	4.7
Rebounds	1.9
Assists	0.2
Field Goal %	43.6%

#12 Milos Uzan

Four-star Guard from Las Vegas, Nevada. Freshman

The 6-3 175 lb. young guard has earned a starting spot in the roster already. He seems to be getting better each and every game. Uzan is a good playmaker and a decent shooter. He can get a hot streak of shooting. However, I think the main thing the Frogs will have to look out for is his playmaking knowledge and ability. He is one of the teams best shooters and all around players. However the last time the Fogs faced him they held him to just two points. If the Frogs can do this they will be successful in this matchup versus Oklahoma.

Milos Uzan	2022-23 Season Stats Average
Points	7.5
Rebounds	2.6
Assists	3.0
Field Goal %	46.6%

29 AST to just 12 TO's (33% AST rate) over the last five for Oklahoma freshman Milos Uzan.

#25 Grant Sherfield

Three-star Guard from Fort Worth, Texas. Senior

Despite not being the biggest guard out there, he still may be the best player on this Sooners roster. Sherfield is a Fort Worth native, so be looking for him to want to put on a show. He has been one of the primary keys in OU's offensive success. He is a senior, so, he has many years and knowledge behind his game. TCU needs to keep him on their radar. He is no doubt OU's biggest weapon. In the last nine games he has scored double digit points. However, the Frogs kept him to only five points. The Horned Frogs' defense is really quick, so, I think they won't have a problem. They must be careful with Sheffield though.

Points	16.0
Rebounds	2.6
Assists	3.3
Field Goal %	41.0%
