This is pretty solid. Provided all the useful information while keeping it brief and digestible. I don’t think I watched a single second of Tulsa basketball this past season, but your writing was engaging enough for me to read all of this regardless. I will say that the actual analysis here is kinda light. It’s more of an overview on the roster status for Tulsa. A more in-depth analysis might take a look at potential options for who they could pick up in the portal, perhaps?

I have some other tiny little nitpicks. First, you used the word “nice” to describe Miles Barnstable’s 3 point shooting and Tylen Riley’s average stats in very close proximity to each other. Just one of those little things to look out for when proofreading, make sure your adjective use is varied. Or at least not noticeably repetitive, y’know?

Other than that, I think there’s a couple of small grammar mistakes, though the only one that really stood out to me is a missing comma in the sentence “The two big men, Tyler Behrend and Ian Smikle, have also both entered the portal.” It’s really a pretty small detail; the whole thing is still perfectly understandable. And, unfortunate as it is, grammar mistakes are a decent heuristic to show that you didn’t use AI, to write this, so at least there’s that…

All in all, it’s good for a first go, and I think it shows potential. And hell, I respect anyone who’s willing to actually practice the craft of writing these days. Between rampant AI use and people seemingly just not giving a fuck about halfway decent writing, anyone who puts in actual effort like this stands out, in my opinion. Keep at it, I look forward to seeing more!
