🏀 Emanuel Sharp — Shooting Spark
A steady hand and scoring threat, Sharp provides offense and calm in the clutch. His smooth shooting makes him a nightmare for opposing defenses.

A rising star and big playmaker early in his Cougar career, Flemings adds energy, assists, and explosive scoring to Houston’s backcourt.
🛡️ Joseph Tugler — Defensive Anchor
