Tounde Yessoufou - College Basketball News & Rumors

Season-lows against Texas Tech Yessoufou chipped in nine points (4-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and four steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 92-73 loss to Texas Tech.

Impact Yessoufou was coming off games of 23 and 20 points against Oklahoma State and Kansas, respectively, but the freshman finally met his match against the Red Raiders, recording single-digit scoring for the first time all season (18 games). He did manage to avoid any turnovers and pick up four steals, but his rebounding effort was also his lowest mark of the year. Yessoufou will look to bounce back in a home matchup Saturday against TCU.

Slowing down in league play? Yessoufou supplied 11 points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes during Saturday's 77-55 loss to Houston.

Impact Yessoufou finished non-conference action with back-to-back 28-point games, but the scoring has trailed off in league play, as he's averaged 10.3 ppg in three Big 12 games, and the Bears have came away with an 0-3 record. Granted, those losses have came against some of the best the Big 12 has to offer, but the risk of hitting that freshman wall is still a concern. The freshman and projected first-round NBA Draft pick will look to bounce back Tuesday at Oklahoma State.
