Jayden Nunn - Productive performance Nunn supplied 15 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals in 21 minutes during Friday's 107-48 win over Mississippi Valley State.
Impact It was the first double-digit scoring output in five games for Nunn, who drained all four of his three-point attempts. Dunn also contributed on the defensive end with four steals in just 21-minutes of action. Nunn has started every game for the Bears but after a solid four-game start to the season that saw him average just under 15 points and 1.8 steals per game, his production has dried up since, averaging just 7.3 points, 1.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.9 steals. After a hot start, the Bears had lost their previous two games and could certainly benefit from more efficient outings like this moving forward from the junior wing.

Ja'Kobe Walter - Drains four triples Walter registered 15 points (4-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 78-60 win over Seton Hall.
Impact Walter assisted on a RayJ Dennis three, then hit one of his own to help spark the Bears on a second half run as they pulled away from Seton Hall in the second half. After a hot start to the season that saw him score 20-plus in three of his first five games, Walter had cooled a bit in his previous three averaging under eight points per game during that stretch. However, the freshman sensation rebounded on Tuesday, hitting four treys on his way to a 15 point outing. Walter has now averaged 19.5 points in four games against power conference opponents.

Caleb Lohner - Contributes 12 in blowout win Lohner ended with 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 108-70 win over Nicholls.
Impact The previous season high was just four points for the senior reserve forward who received some extra run due to the nature of the outcome on Tuesday. Lohner shot 83% on the night while finishing a perfect 2-for-2 from behind the arc. He's averaging 3.6 points and 3.3 rebounds in 13.9 minutes per game.
NOVEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Langston Love - Scores career high 23 Love logged 23 points (8-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 108-70 victory over Nicholls.
Impact The game did get out of hand early but this performance from Love was more about his efficiency from the field rather than extra opportunities off the bench due to game script. While Love does not contribute much by way of ancillary statistics, he has been hyper-efficient with his opportunities, placing third on the team in scoring with 13.3 points while shooting 49.2% from the field, including 54.2% from behind the arc while making 3.4 threes per game.
NOVEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
RayJ Dennis - Collects 10 assists Dennis had 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and 10 assists across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 108-70 victory over Nicholls.
Impact The fifth year senior needed just 24 minutes to complete his sixth career double double and first of the season. After averaging 19.5 points last season, Dennis' scoring output was due to regress with the move from Toledo to Baylor. However, his 13.9 points per game this season is good enough for second on the team. He's also adding a career high in assists (6.6), steals (1.7), field goal percentage (56.0%) and three-point shooting (37.5%).
