Milos Uzan Returns to Houston for Senior Season

Houston guard Milos Uzan has withdrawn from the 2025 NBA Draft and will return to the Cougars for his senior season, after averaging 11.4 points, 4.3 assists, and shooting 43% from three-point range last year. Uzan, an All-Big 12 second-team selection, played a pivotal role in Houston’s 35-5 season and their NCAA championship game appearance. His return, alongside Emanuel Sharp and Joseph Tugler, strengthens a squad now bolstered by top recruits Chris Cenac, Isiah Harwell, and Kingston Flemings. Uzan's decision led Creighton transfer Pop Isaacs, who had committed to Houston as a potential replacement, to switch his commitment to Texas A&M. Uzan's improved shooting, defense, and leadership are expected to further elevate the team for his final collegiate year. With these additions and returning talent, Houston is considered a leading contender for the 2025-26 national title.
