explosive freshman guard who became Oklahoma’s engine
In the 2024-25 season, Jeremiah Fears was Oklahoma’s go-to creator, averaging 17.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.6 steals in 34 games while shooting 43.4% from the field and 85.1% at the line. He stands out for his pace, downhill pressure and two-way playmaking—especially the way he gets into the paint and forces defenses to collapse. The caveat: his 28.4% three-point shooting shows there’s still room to polish the jumper, but his toughness and NBA-level burst made him a high-end one-and-done talent.
