Tyla Heard brings local ties, size, and backcourt upside to Oklahoma State
In the 2025-26 season, Tyla Heard is listed as a 5-11 sophomore guard for the Oklahoma State Cowgirls, and her value comes as much from versatility and familiarity with the program as from box-score production[1][9]. In 2024-25 at Oral Roberts, she averaged 2.3 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 14.4 minutes, with a strong free-throw touch (84.6%) but a quiet scoring profile overall[12]. What makes her interesting is the combo of in-state pedigree, sibling chemistry with Stailee Heard, and a guard frame that can support defense, rebounding, and connective play if her offensive confidence catches up[7][11].
