<span style="text-transform: none;"><b>WACO, Texas</b> – Baylor men's basketball team (10-4, 0-2) will host its second top-10 team of the week in No. 7 Houston (14-2, 2-0) at Foster Pavilion on Saturday at noon on Peacock. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="text-transform: none;"><b>GAME NOTES</b></span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Baylor hosts 7/7 Houston for the 58th meetup in program history on Saturday afternoon on Peacock.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• With BU hosting 3/3 Iowa State and 7/7 Houston this week, it marks the first time BU has played two</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">top-10 teams in back-to-back games at home.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• The last time BU took down UH at home was Feb. 22, 1995, winning 97-89.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• The last time the Bears took down a top-10 team at home was 3/2/24 vs. #7 Kansas, 82-74.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Baylor is 35-28 against ranked teams over the last seven seasons, including a 17-7 mark at home.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Baylor is 93-31 against in-state opponents since the start of the 2011-12 season.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Cameron Carr is the only player since at least 2010 to average 1.9 dunks and 2.0 made 3s per game.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Isaac Williams IV nine blocks on the season rank tied for second among players listed 6'1 or shorter.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• BU announced roster updates with the addition of center James Nnaji, while also confirming that Juslin Bodo Bodo will remain out for the rest of the 2025-26 season.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• The 7'0 center of Nnaji comes to Waco after spending the last four seasons playing in the EuroLeague.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">Nnaji was selected as the 31st overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft by the Detroit Pistons before his rights were traded to the Charlotte Hornets and later the New York Knicks.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Tounde Yessoufou has snagged double-digits in every game this season, which is fourth among active streaks of Big 12 players beginning their career with 10-plus points in consecutive games.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Cameron Carr has reached double-figures in the first half in 12 of 14 games this season.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• The Bears ended their non-con season with three consecutive 110-point performances. Baylor and Texas A&M are the first teams in the Major Conferences to have three consecutive games with 110+ points.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• The Baylor offense has been sharing the wealth with at least four Bears scoring in double-figures in 11 out of 14 games this season. Six Bears currently hold double-digit scoring averages.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• BU is ranked 16th in the nation and 5th in the Big 12 in offense efficiency (122.7) according to KenPom.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• BU leads the Big 12 offensive rebounds per game (14.6) and ranks ninth in the nation.</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Obi Agbim is second the Big 12 and is fifth in the nation in assist/turnover ratio (4.80).</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Cameron Carr ranks fifth in the Big 12 and 24th in the nation in points per game (20.7).</span><br>
<span style="text-transform: none;">• Tounde Yessoufou holds a scoring average of 18.0 points per game, which ties for sixth in the nation among true freshmen.</span></div>
