Oklahoma basketball signs Tulsa native Trey Phipps

Teammate of Bryce Thompson, Trey Phipps, signed with Oklahoma just one day after Thompson committed to the Kansas Jayhawks.

Teammate of Bryce Thompson at Booker T. Washington (Tulsa, Okla.), Trey Phipps, signed his National Letter of Intent with Oklahoma just one day after Thompson committed to the Kansas Jayhawks.

The three-star guard stands 6-foot-2 and weighs in at just 160 pounds, leaving plenty of room for Phipps to grow and develop once he is on campus.

“Becoming a Sooner is something I always dreamed about as a kid,” said Phipps in a press release from the university. “Being able to have the opportunity to play at OU is something I’m extremely grateful and excited for.”

Trey’s father, Conley Phipps was a part of two basketball teams, playing for the 1985-86 and 1986-87 Sooners under Coach Billy Tubbs.

Trey Phipps is no stranger to the big stage. In the 2019 6A Oklahoma State Basketball Championship game, Phipps capped off an MVP postseason with a 42 point performance to help secure a gold ball for the Hornets.

Phipps is a sharpshooter which will prove dangerous once he’s on campus next season.

“Trey is a terrific competitor who is a very hard worker and shoots the ball extremely well,” Lon Kruger said in a press release. “He has a passion to be at Oklahoma and will fit in very well right off the bat. We’re delighted to have him.”
