Coach Nate Tibbetts discusses his roster as of Tuesday night. The roster includes name, position, height, weight and college (or most recent school). Some cuts will be made before the season-opener against Utah on Friday night:
Cecil Brown, G, 6-4, 190, UC-Santa Barbara
He was our third-round pick this year and he's played in the D-League before. He's a guy who has a calming presence, can stretch the floor, and make shots.
Keith Clark, F, 6-8, 245, Oklahoma
Keith is one of the premier athletes in the D-League and can really run the floor. He plays hard every night and plays through pain.
Byron Eaton, G, 5-11, 210, Oklahoma State
A super-talented guy who isn't playing like a rookie. He tells guys where they should be. He needs to learn how to play the NBA style of game.
Moses Ehambe, G, 6-6, 200, Oral Roberts
He works extremely hard. He had a great summer working out with the Thunder. Now he needs to show people he can really play defense.
Ansel Guzman, G, 5-9, 170, Puerto Rico
He has big-time speed. He's a quick guard who can make things happen in the open court.
Steven Hill, C, 7-0, 245, Arkansas
Steven has an NBA body. He's a hard worker and brings a calming presence to the team. He needs to continue to develop offensively.
Mitch Johnson, F, 6-5, 215, Jarvis Christian (Texas)
He can play the 1 or 2 position. He's active, plays hard, and seems very comfortable driving to the hoop.
Marcus Lewis, F, 6-8, 245, Oral Roberts
There aren't a lot of local tryouts who make it this far, and Marcus has really been a very pleasant surprise for us. He makes it very competitive for guys in practice.
Byron Mullens, C, 7-0, 270, Ohio State
He's a very talented guy with big-time potential. He's done a lot of work during the summer, and he needs to carry it onto the court.
Yemi Ogunoye, F, 6-9, 210, Oral Roberts
He does whatever the coaches ask him to do. He's a big-time defender who needs to continue to work on his offensive game.
Larry Owens, F, 6-7, 210, Oral Roberts
A versatile player who can play some different positions. He can score inside and outside. He brings leadership and professionalism to the team.
Mustafa Shakur, G, 6-3, 190, Arizona
A big point guard who is also a very good defender. He is continuing to work on his leadership skills.
Latavious Williams, F, 6-8, 195, Christian Life Academy (Texas)
He's been a great kid from the very start. He wants to learn and is excited to be here. He is learning what it takes to play at this level, and he has the ability to get better.
