OKLAHOMA SOONERS NEWS

Joe Bamisile - Comes off bench Monday night Bamisile accumulated six points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 13 minutes during Monday's 52-51 loss to Sam Houston.

Impact Bamisile did not start in his Oklahoma debut after transferring from George Washington this offseason. While starting all but one of his 30 games last season, the 6-foot-4 junior averaged 16.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks in 31.3 minutes per contest. Bamisile also spent his first collegiate season at Virginia Tech, though he may have to prove himself at the Power 5 level while playing behind C.J. Noland and Grant Sherfield this season.

Grant Sherfield - Leading scorer in season opener Sherfield supplied 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 52-51 loss to Sam Houston.

Impact Sherfield recorded team highs in points and rebounds as the Sooners were upset in their season opener. However, this stat line fell short of his scoring averages over his last two seasons with Nevada, as the senior transfer put up 18.6 points and 6.1 assists in 2020-21 followed by 19.1 points and 6.4 assists in 2021-22. Sherfield did still make 62.5 percent of his field goals during his Oklahoma debut, and he'll look to improve his value as an offensive facilitator against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Friday.
