Scoring surge in close win Joseph totaled 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Monday's 59-55 win over Central Connecticut State.
Impact In a game that was supposed to be a blowout in favor of the Friars, Joseph helped keep his team up against the Blue Devils until the eventual four-point victory. Leading his team in points was impressive especially as he transferred in from Miami this offseason, but his 50 percent shooting from the arc also looked solid compared to his 36.4 to end out the 2023-24 season. The senior guard should be a top scorer for Providence this season, after averaging 9.8 points and 3.9 assists across 32 games last season.

Commits to Providence Joseph announced his commitment to Providence on Friday.
Impact Joseph will look to spend his last year of collegiate eligibility back in the Northeast region, where he spent most of his life and high school career. He averaged 9.6 points, 3.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 1.6 three-pointers made across his 27 games started as a junior for a Providence team that held itself together relatively well in an extremely tough Big East Conference. Joseph has more than enough tools to replace Devin Carter, who declared for the 2024 NBA Draft just days earlier.

Stuffs stat sheet Friday Joseph posted 15 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists, four blocks and five steals over 36 minutes during Friday's 88-72 win over UCF.
Impact Players like Norchad Omier and Matt Cleveland certainly stand out for Miami, but there's no doubt Joseph made his presence felt against UCF. Outside of ending as one of the 'Canes top scorers with 15 points, he also filled the stat sheet with stellar contributions on other categories, particularly on the defensive end. Joseph is not expected to be one of Miami's best scorers on a regular basis going forward, but there's no doubt he has started the season on a strong note.

Good game started Joseph provided 12 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds and five assists over 37 minutes during Saturday's 85-84 loss to Florida State.
Impact Joseph has proven to be a valued option when part of Miami's starting lineup. After all, this is his second game started in place of Kansas State transfer Nijel Pack (lower body). Joseph logged at least 10 points, six rebounds and five assists during both of his two games started. So if Pack must continue to sit out, though unlikely, Joseph will be a promising option.

Gets starting nod Joseph is in the starting five for Saturday's game versus Florida State.
Impact Joseph will replace Nijel Pack (lower body) in the starting lineup Saturday. The sophomore guard will make just his second start of the season.

Logs 14 points, seven assists Joseph closed with 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, six assists and one block in 29 minutes during Saturday's 91-76 victory over Saint Francis U.
Impact Nijel Pack was ill Saturday. Thus, the Hurricanes had Joseph as part of their starting lineup that day. The sophomore's latest log is his best from Nov. 19 to Dec. 17. Joseph averaged 6.2 points and 3.1 assists across those dates.

Goes for 12 off bench Joseph contributed 12 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 87-61 win over Florida A&M.
Impact Joseph has yet to start a game for the Hurricanes in his career, but he's playing a decent role through the first three outings of the campaign. He's logged at least 20 minutes in two of his three appearances, but this was the first time in which he scored in double digits. Due to the nature of his bench role, however, his fantasy upside isn't very high.
