Poor shooting hurts Sooners

Kristian Doolittle took a jump shot with just over 10 minutes left in Oklahoma’s basketball game against Kansas State.

It bounced off the rim.

Freshman Jalen Hill grabbed the rebound and passed it to junior Alondes Williams, who took a jump shot. Williams’ shot went in and out of the basket, and Kansas State’s Makol Mawein rebounded.

Oklahoma didn’t get a shot to fall at times in its 61-53 loss to Kansas State on Wednesday night at Bramlage Coliseum. A lack of energy early on and a dominating start by the Wildcats put OU at a disadvantage, but it was the Sooners' inability to get easy shots to fall that hurt them the most.
