Flirts with triple-double in loss McBride finished with 19 points (6-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), eight assists and seven rebounds across 45 minutes Saturday in West Virginia's 91-90 loss to Oklahoma in double overtime... Impact Efficiency was an issue for McBride, but the sophomore guard still bludgeoned his way to another strong stat line thanks to his high-usage role and his rebounding production. He also provided one of the Mountaineers' more important buckets of the afternoon, as his layup with 41 seconds remaining in the second overtime period briefly gave West Virginia a one-point lead. After being held in single digits in scoring in back-to-back games Jan. 30 and Feb. 2, McBride has seemingly gotten back in track over his last three contests, averaging 23.3 points on 43.3 percent shooting from the field to go with 6.3 assists, 5.7 rebounds, 2.3 triples and 1.0 steals over that span.
