Oklahoma Sooners add experienced guard from the SEC
With the Sooners, Isaacs is on his fourth school after playing 100 games between Texas Tech, Creighton, and Texas A&M. In 2025-2026 with the Aggies, Isaacs shot 39.6 percent from three and 42.2 percent from the field while averaging 9.8 points per game. In 2023-2024 and 2024-2025, he averaged more than 15 points per game.
Last season, he played in more of a rotational role after an injury-shortened 2024-2025 with Creighton, but played in 33 games for the Aggies. Of those 33 games, he went for double-digit points 17 times, including a season high 21 points in a win over Auburn.
His career high is 32 points, which he recorded in a Big 12 game against BYU back at the beginning of 2024.
With Oklahoma, Isaacs provides an experienced outside-shooting threat who will play well alongside Brown. His SEC experience will be invaluable to a Sooners team that hopes to make it back to the NCAA tournament in 2026-2027.
