Texas Tech's standout center has been a double-double machine as a Red Raider and an Oral Roberts Golden Eagle.

His double-doubles were game-changing on a defense that was college basketball's best last season.

While Texas Tech will see some roster turnover, Obanor's return will keep them among the contenders in the Big 12.

Obanor was in contention for a late second-round draft pick last year. He will return to try to put another strong season and add to his draft stock next year.
