KEYSHAWN EMBERY-SIMPSON NEWS

Leaving Tulsa Embery-Simpson has announced that he will enter the transfer portal, VerbalCommits.com reports.

Impact Embery-Simpson will look for opportunities with a new program after spending the last three years with Tulsa. The 6-foot-3 senior appeared in 24 games this season, averaging 4.8 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists on 19.4 minutes per game.

Unavailable again Embery-Simpson (undisclosed) did not play in Wednesday's 72-56 loss to South Florida.

Out vs. Central Florida Embery-Simpson (undisclosed) will sit out Tulsa's game Sunday versus Central Florida, according to Kelly Hines of the Tulsa World.

Logs 11 minutes Saturday Embery (undisclosed) logged zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two assists across 11 minutes during Sunday's 76-53 loss to Temple.

Impact Embery played 11 minutes off the bench Saturday after failing to appear in Wednesday's loss to USF. While it's unclear if the 6-foot-3 senior was dealing with any injury, Wednesday's game marked his just second absence all season. Therefore, it's encouraging to see he was able to retake the court Saturday even though he still played well below his season average for minutes (19.8). Over 24 games with six starts this season, Embery has averaged 4.8 points and 1.5 rebounds while playing 19.4 minutes per contest.

DNP against USF Embery (undisclosed) did not take the court in Wednesday's 96-69 loss to USF.

Impact Embery logged 21 minutes in a came against UCF just four days earlier, so it's unclear while the senior -- and former starter -- would be held out here. In his stead, Jesaiah McWright -- who has already seen a recent bump in playing time -- picked up the start (over BB Knight) and saw a career-high 33 minutes.

Plays five minutes Embery (undisclosed) logged two points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) across five minutes during Tulsa's 81-55 loss Wednesday at Cincinnati.

Impact Fortunately for Embery, he was absent only once. The senior is expected to continue being a backup option when healthy. Embery averaged 14.7 minutes without games started across his first nine matchups of 2023.

DNP vs. Memphis Embery did not play during the Hurricane's 80-68 loss Sunday versus Memphis.

Scores seven points off bench Embery had seven points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound in 12 minutes during Saturday's 81-79 OT win over Tulane.

Impact Embery shot the ball well from deep in Saturday's win. Though he did not attempt a shot from inside the arc, Embery was able to hit two three-point attempts, his fourth game this season hitting multiple threes. Embery has been an inconsistent scorer all season long with Saturday marking his highest scoring game over his last four appearances.

Key reserve role Embery (academics) ended with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Monday's 73-70 loss to Oregon State.

Impact Embery's season was cut short in January due to academic-related reasons, but he was back for the 2022-23 opener as one of the two primary reserves used by the Hurricane. It appears as if he'll be clear to contribute in this capacity moving forward.

NOVEMBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out for season Embery will miss the remainder of the season, Kelly Hines of the Tulsa World reports.

Impact After failing to meet the NCAA's academic requirements during the fall semester, Embery is set to miss the rest of the season as a result. The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 3.6 points and 1.3 assists in 19.1 minutes per game this season.

Returns to rotation Thursday Embery scored five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) in 12 minutes during Thursday's 83-62 win over Alcorn State.

Impact Embery was averaging 20.7 minutes across the first nine games of the season. However, after back-to-back scoreless outings, he was removed from the rotation during Tulsa's 69-65 win over Southern Illinois on Dec. 11. Barring a dramatic change, the 6-foot-3 junior will likely have a limited role moving forward.

Sits against Southern Illinois Embery did not take the court in Saturday's 69-65 victory over Southern Illinois.

Impact No concrete reason was provided for Embery's absence, though his minutes have been a bit inconsistent of late. Embery was in the starting lineup for a four-game stretch in November, but has moved to a reserve role in the next four, scoring just 2.0 ppg in 15.5 mpg over that span. That included a Dec. 3 contest against Boise in which he only saw four minutes. It appears his playing time could simply be on the decline, with freshman Anthony Pritchard handling point-guard duty and sophomore Sam Griffin -- who had 20 points Saturday -- locking down the shooting guard spot.

Not starting Sunday Embery is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Memphis.

Impact Embery had started all 11 games for the Hurricanes coming into Sunday and will come off the bench for the first time this season. The 6-3 sophomore has played under 20 minutes in two of the last three games while shooting just under 30 percent from the floor and has left head coach Frank Haith no choice but to make some changes in the lineup.
