Abdullah Ahmed - No action after all Ahmed (undisclosed) did not take the court in Saturday's 82-76 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact Ahmed surfaced on Saturday's availability report despite playing in the last 13 games and averaging 12.2 mpg over that span, though his playing time dipped a bit to 8.5 mpg over his last four. The sophomore was given a "probable" status and ultimately removed from the report, so while he's presumed healthy enough to go, he never saw game action. His absence could simply be a matter of the team taking a conservative approach with whatever was ailing him, though the fact Khadim Mboup got added run in this game (26 minutes) also may have played a role. In a game that was close throughout, no bench player other than Mboup saw more than four minutes. Ahmed's next chance to take the court will be in the Big 12 Tournament on Tuesday against Kansas State.

Robert Wright III - Leads scoring in finale win Wright had 27 points (9-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 82-76 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact Wright closed out the regular season with a bang, leading the Cougars in scoring and logging his most rebounds in a game since mid-January. The 6-foot-1 guard has proven to be a lethal punch alongside freshman phenom A.J. Dybantsa, and the pair will look to make their mark against Kansas State on Tuesday.

Abdullah Ahmed - Probable to play Saturday Ahmed (undisclosed) is probable to play Saturday against Texas Tech.

Impact Ahmed is a depth option in the frontcourt who averages just 1.5 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game in his 17 appearances this season. His probable tag suggests he should suit up Saturday even if he plays a limited role once again.
