Plays through cramping Harmon exited Tuesday's matchup against Kansas State due to cramps, Joey Helmer of 247 Sports reports.
Impact It was tough to identify an injury after a quick glance at the box score, as Harmon finished the contest with 16 points (6-11 FG), four rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes on the floor. Fortunately for the Sooners, the outcome of this game was secured early, and Harmon isn't expected to miss time due to the issue.

15 minutes in return Hill had six points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three steals, two rebounds and a block across 15 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 76-50 victory over Kansas State.
Impact Hill was able to return from COVID-19 protocol alongside Bradey Manek, but both forwards came off the bench while the Sooners used a four-guard lineup. Hill actually out-performed Manek with one of his better stat lines of the season, including his best scoring total since Dec. 12. Nonetheless, he remains simply a depth option for coach Lon Kruger.

Just 11 minutes in return Manek had six points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), a rebound and a block across 11 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 76-50 victory over Kansas State.
Impact Manek has regressed statistically across the board in his senior season, and a two-game absence due to COVID-19 protocol certainly didn't do fantasy players any favors. He'll likely have to return to the starting five and show a larger workload before the 6-9 forward can be trusted again. Tuesday was the perfect chance to ease him in, as the Sooners handily defeated a team that is 1-6 in conference play.

Good to go Tuesday Oklahoma head coach Lon Kruger said Hill (COVID-19 protocols) will be available for Tuesday's game versus Kansas State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Hill missed Oklahoma's last two games while waiting to clear all health-related protocols. When available this season, the 6-foot-7 sophomore has been a consistent member of Kruger's rotation, averaging 3.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 16.8 minutes per game over nine appearances off the bench.

Cleared for Tuesday Oklahoma head coach Lon Kruger said Manek (COVID-19 protocols) will be available for Tuesday's game against Kansas State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Manek missed the Sooners' last two games while he waited to clear all health-related protocols. The senior big man has been a key piece in the Oklahoma starting lineup this season, averaging 13.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.3 three-pointers in 26.6 minutes per game over nine appearances.

Hopeful to return Tuesday Manek (COVID-19 protocol) is hopeful to return for Tuesday's game against Kansas State, Eric Bailey of the Tulsa World reports.
Impact Manek is awaiting the result of one final COVID-19 test. If it comes back negative he will be able to practice with the team on Monday and play in Tuesday's game. We'll have to wait obviously to know for sure, but it appears to be trending in the direction that Manek will be back after missing the last three games.

Unlikely to return Saturday Manek (COVID-19 protocol) is unlikely to play in Saturday's game against Oklahoma State according to coach Lon Kruger, Ryan Aber of The Oklahoman reports.
Impact Manek is looking at his third straight missed game due to COVID-19 protocols. Jalen Hill has been out for the same reasons, but will be available on Saturday. It's not clear when Manek will be able to return to the team.

Will be available Saturday Hill (undisclosed) will be available for Saturday's game against Oklahoma State, Ryan Aber of The Oklahoman reports.
Impact Hill missed the team's last two games due to COVID-19 protocols. Brady Manek has been out for the same reasons as well, but is not expected to return Saturday. Hill may get extended run in the frontcourt for Saturday's game at least.

22 in rout against TCU Harmon had a team-high 22 points (9-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt,) to go along with six rebounds and four assists across 35 minutes in Tuesday's 82-46 victory over TCU.
Impact Normally it's Austin Reaves that handles the scoring load, but Harmon got hot and wasn't afraid to keep shooting. It was ultimately his highest-scoring game since the season opener when he put up another 22-point effort off the bench. Oklahoma may run into a bit of trouble without Brady Manek and Jalen Hill in the lineup due to COVID-19 protocol, but as long as the guards are making shots like this, the possible rebounding deficiency won't be as big of an issue.

Impact Both Hill and Brady Manek will miss their second straight game due to COVID-19 protocols. It's unclear if one or both of them will be able to return by Saturday's game against Oklahoma State. Hill has been a nice contributor off the bench this season for the Sooners.
