Welcome to basketball practice in late July, a month typically reserved for summer conditioning and individual skills training while coaches go recruiting. Kruger and assistant Steve Henson conducted a full-squad workout Sunday night because the NCAA allows teams going on exhibition trips an extra 10 practices.

The Sooners leave Aug. 6 for a tour of Europe. They'll play twice in Belgium before traveling to France for three more games.

Speaking of overseas, M'Baye and Fitz both signed pro contracts (http://newsok.com/former-sooners-mbaye-fitzgerald-sign-pro-contracts-overseas/article/3866982)


In a Twitter exchange with Oklahoma freshman Jordan Woodard, M’Baye indicated that he would be playing in Japan this season.

Another former Sooner forward, Andrew Fitzgerald, signed with a team in Poland last week.
