Oral Roberts stunned college basketball when it made a Cinderella run to the Sweet 16 as a No. 15 seed in 2021. The No. 12 seed Golden Eagles will try to prove their 2021 run was not a fluke when they face No. 5 seed Duke in the first round of the 2023 NCAA Tournament bracket on Thursday. Point guard Max Abmas scored 26 points in a 92-58 win over North Dakota State in the Summit League Tournament title game last week, upping his season average to 22.2 points per game.
