That is exactly the attitude you want from your superstar player, arguably the best player in college basketball this season. And if it were just Buddy Hield, you’d feel equally confident about the Sooners’ prospects.
The problem is, there are four other players on the court with Buddy “Buckets,” and it is the collective contribution that worries me greatly about the late-season version of this Sooners’ team that seems to be limping into the postseason.
Ideally, teams want to be peaking and playing some of their best basketball heading into the postseason, when the level of competition gets better and the margin for surviving a bad game becomes much less.
