HOUSTON – Guard Milos Uzan has joined the University of Houston Men's Basketball program after signing a financial aid agreement, Head Coach Kelvin Sampson announced Wednesday.

Uzan, whose name is pronounced My-Los (as in dose) You-Zan, joined the Cougars after spending his first two seasons at Oklahoma. He will compete as a junior in 2024-25 and have two years of eligibility remaining.

"We are excited about Milos' decision to join our program at the University of Houston," said Head Coach Kelvin Sampson, who recently completed his 10^th season with the Cougars. "We are looking forward to developing Milos into the best player that he can be."

As a sophomore at Oklahoma in 2023-24, Uzan was the only player to start all 32 games.

The Las Vegas native averaged 9.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and a team-high 4.3 assists per game. He scored a season-high 17 points and finished with a career-high 12 rebounds in a win over Providence during the Big East-Big 12 Battle.

In the lone meeting of the season against Houston, Uzan tallied six points with three rebounds and four assists and no turnovers in Norman, Okla., on March 2.

Uzan finished with a personal-best 10 assists at TCU.

As a freshman in 2022-23, Uzan competed in 32 games with 24 starts and was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team after averaging 7.6 points, 3.0 assists and 2.7 rebounds per outing.

That year, he scored a career-best 20 points at #11/11 Kansas State and came on strong down the stretch, scoring 10+ points in five of the last seven games.
