Junior forward Marchello Vealy was suspended from the Golden Eagles. This really is a big blow to Oral Roberts this year, because Vealy was a 2nd team Mid-Continent all star that averaged 8 points and 7 boards Ppg.

Vealy returns to team after nearly monthlong suspension

TULSA, Okla. -- Forward Marchello Vealy, a key player in Oral Roberts' upset of Kansas last season, was reinstated to the basketball team Monday after a suspension that lasted more than three weeks, coach Scott Sutton said.

Vealy is expected to play Tuesday when Oral Roberts (1-2) hosts Louisiana-Lafayette.

"When Marchello was suspended, I told him he could return to the team when he took care of certain off-the-court responsibilities," Sutton said in a statement. "Over the past three weeks, Marchello has shown the commitment we were expecting. We're happy to have him back."

Vealy hit seven 3-pointers and scored a career-high 22 points in the Golden Eagles' 78-71 win at then-No. 3 Kansas last season, the biggest upset in school history.

Vealy, a junior, averaged 7.7 points and 5.9 rebounds last season and was named the Sixth Man of the Year in the Mid-Continent Conference, which has since been renamed the Summit League.

He was suspended Oct. 26 and missed both of Oral Roberts' exhibition games and its first three regular-season games.
