Mylik Wilson - DNP again Wilson did not play during Houston's 83-45 win Monday versus Oral Roberts.
Impact Wilson sat out the Cougars' first three games of their 2022-23 season. Considering there has not been an update about his status, it is presumed he continues being healthy. But because the Cougars are playing well with their guards and without Wilson, he could be a redshirt candidate at this non-promising rate.
