Baylor dropped its fourth conference match five games into Big 12 play, in a Friday night 80-62 beatdown at the hands of Kansas. The Bears are now 1-20 all-time on the road against the Jayhawks at Allen Fieldhouse.

Junior center Juslin Bodo Bodo has yet to play for the Bears this season due to an upper arm injury. Following the signing of Barcelona center James Nnaji, the High Point transfer will medically redshirt for the season.

Nnaji, a 7-foot center from Nigeria, was drafted by the Detroit Pistons with the No. 31 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. He will soon become the first NBA Draft pick to play his first NCAA game years after being drafted.

With a new style this season the Bears have found themselves taking a ‘pack-the-line’ approach to bring defensive prowess back to Waco.

As the season gets underway, the Bears are beginning to find national eyes glance towards Waco in response to a prolific offense.

Baylor lost the first road game they’ve had this season in Memphis Saturday 78-71. Turnovers and a high volume of missed shots exposed the team’s early weaknesses thus far.

Michael Rataj is listed as a guard, but has shifted up the lineup to play center due to injuries. He’s been an indispensable Swiss Army knife for the shorthanded Bears, leading the team in offensive rebounds while chipping in 3.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game.

Even with injuries and constant change, the Bears have found something steady: each other. Their chemistry has become their anchor, shaping how they play and who they are. It’s the foundation of the team’s strong start to the season.

The Bears found second-half dominance to put together their first 20-plus point win of the season Tuesday night. Freshman guard Tounde Yessoufou led the way for the Bears with 27 points and four steals.

The Bears started slow but picked up steam in the second half, out-shooting the Aztecs 38-26 in the paint.

The Bears dropped the second game of the Players Era Festival at the hands of Rick Pitino’s Red Storm. Baylor will play one more game in the tournament before returning to Waco.

Baylor snagged its first win in the Player’s Era tournament as they beat Creighton 81-74, never giving up the lead on Monday afternoon.

Redshirt sophomore Will Kuykendall, an Arizona transfer who has yet to touch the floor for the Bears, is making his presence felt as a vocal leader on head coach Scott Drew’s bench.

Michael Rataj, a senior Oregon State transfer, scored six points Friday to cross the millennium mark. Rataj has filled in at center for the Bears while presumed starter Juslin Bodo Bodo recovers from an injury.

With zero returning players and everything to prove, Baylor men’s basketball is entering a new era. Fifth-year guard Obi Agbim is helping set the tone for a team determined to build its identity one practice, one day, one step at a time.

Isaiah Austin, the highest-rated recruit in Baylor men’s basketball history, led the Big 12 with 3.1 blocks per game in 2013-14. He also had such bad attitude issues that he was nearly kicked off the team for good.

As former assistants flourish elsewhere, Baylor head coach Scott Drew’s coaching tree is quickly developing into one of the best in college basketball.

The Bears doubled up the Huskies at the 3-point and free-throw lines in the biggest non-conference home game of the season.

The Bears replaced every scholarship player this offseason. They’ll face their first major test Sunday against Washington.

As NIL rules continue to develop and grow out of control in college sports, G-League players are now being allowed to jump from the professional level to college competition.

The Bears trailed 26-12 through nine minutes, but rallied to down the Vaqueros at Foster Pavilion. Redshirt sophomore Cameron Carr (28 points, 5 rebounds) and five-star freshman Tounde Yessoufou (24 points, 7 rebounds) led the way in the victory.

Midway High School product Caden Powell was born less than four months after Baylor hired Scott Drew. Now, he’ll be Drew’s first scholarship Wacoan.

The Bears spent Sunday afternoon in Indianapolis competing against the Indiana Hoosiers in an exhibition game. Despite a 76-74 loss record, there were several takeaways from the weightless matchup.

For the first time since the 2018-19 season, the Bears were not included in the preseason AP Top 25 poll — and that’s OK.

Baylor Men’s Basketball has been nothing short of successful in the past 25 years. Here are the top five stars from this generation.

Head coach Scott Drew will lead his Baylor Bears against his brother Bryce’s Grand Canyon Antelopes at a public exhibition Friday at Foster Pavilion. The matchup will be the first time the two college basketball legends have faced off publicly since 2015.

Redshirt sophomore guard Cameron Carr is the lone player on Baylor’s roster to share a practice court with last season’s team. The former four-star and ESPN top 100 recruit is coming into the season carrying the burden of an expected leader for the Bears.

The first 17 years of head coach Scott Drew’s career at Baylor saw one season-ending knee injury. The past five years have seen five.

Baylor’s roster saw complete turnover this offseason, returning zero players from last year’s team. After competing together in the FISU World University Games, though, the Bears’ new faces have gelled quickly.

The Bears took to Germany this summer to represent the United States in the World University Games, hosted by International University Sports Federation (FISU).
