Like the Gophers, Oklahoma was led in their season opener by a couple of new faces. Austin Reaves, a transfer from Wichita St, and De’Vion Harmon, a highly ranked freshman PG, each scored 23 points on their way to a route over UT San Antonio. Those two combined with the team’s leading returning scorer, Brady Manek’s 16 points.
Tonight they get Kristian Doolittle back after serving a 1-game suspension due to playing in a summer league game without proper NCAA clearance. Doolittle may be the team’s best player and will give Lon Kruger his full compliment of players for tonight’s game against Minnesota.
