On April 27, Oklahoma Sooners are jumping on the hot trend of pulling ready talent from the NBA G-League, signing 6-foot 11-center Dakota Gach from the Capitol City Go-Go. The 23-year-old Australian put up 6.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in just 16 minutes per gain this season. Gach inked an exhibit 10 deal with the Washington Wizards last October, keeping him with their G-League squad. He's got solid pro-chops, playing in Australia's NBL from 2020 to 2022, suiting up for the Chicago Bulls' Summer League in 2022, and even a stent with Mexico City capitanes before landing in the Go-Go. This feels a huge gap for the Sooners of Front, with Moe-Way graduating and career elitance as eligibility done, leaving just young Kairajas as their main big last year. Gach's experience should steady that rotation and mentor Rajas through his jump. Meanwhile, Oklahoma's building out the roster would transfer his Connie Ruth from Louisville,

Tyler Hendrix from Utah Valley, and Pop Isaacs from Texas. A&M, plus top 60 freshman gauge Mayfield, they locked in key returners too, like Darian Reed, Xavier Brown, Rogers, and Dayton Forstay. Coach Porter-Mozor Squad now has that pro-level death to chase consistency, setting up a front court that could surprise come next season.
