Oklahoma F Tanner Groves Picks Up Big 12 Weekly Honors

In the two Oklahoma wins, Groves averaged 18 points and seven rebounds on 60% shooting, making him one of just two Big 12 players to shoot at least 60% while having attempted at least 25 field goals.

He has also added in two blocks, one steal and made four three-pointers.

All in all, he has been the Sooners’ best player in the early going and has lived up to the lofty standards cast upon him when he made the move from the Big Sky conference to join Moser’s inaugural team in Norman.

If Oklahoma wants to get where they want to go this season, it feels like Groves is going to need to be right at the heart of the team’s production in a lot of areas.

It’s only been two games, but so far that has been the case in a major way and is why he was honored on Monday.

Next up for the Sooners will be a trip to the East Coast to participate in the Myrtle Beach Invitational starting with East Carolina on Thursday evening.
