Cougars' guard has re-emerged as the player that was a big part of Final Four run in...
Cedric Lath is the newest Houston Cougar during warmups before the start of the first half of a NCAA mens basketball game at the Fertitta Center on Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2023 in Houston.Before the season, Sasser, a 6-foot-2 senior, was named to the Associated Press preseason All-America team. That honor came a few months after Sasser withdrew his name from the NBA draft and opted to return for one final college season.
After meeting with Sasser, Sampson began to see a change in recent weeks. Sasser began to re-emerge as the player that was a big part of the Cougars’ Final Four run in 2021, including back-to-back 20-point games against Oregon State in the Elite Eight and Baylor in the national semifinals. Sasser had 16 points in a key road win Sunday against Cincinnati, a place that has traditionally been tough for the Cougars. UH needed Sasser to step up again Wednesday, as Sampson was without his top two frontcourt players and forced to use a four-guard lineup most of the game. Talented freshman forward Jarace Walker missed the game sick and J’Wan Roberts was limited to three points and three rebounds in 17 minutes because of foul trouble.
