The 'Buddy Love' is the hottest thing in sports

NORMAN — Buddy Hield ambled across the practice court, his steps heavy, his eyelids heavier.

"I just woke up an hour ago," he said as mid-afternoon sunlight streamed into the gym.

You can't blame him.

Not after he scored 46 points at Kansas. Not after he played 54 minutes at Allen Field House. Not after he had a performance so monumental that it sent shock waves through the sports world.

Hield left everyone buzzing Monday night, and the reverb was still being felt Tuesday. While many an Oklahoma fan has taken a shining to the senior guard, the Buddy Love has never been deeper or higher.
