Aaron Thompson - Chips in nine points Thompson posted nine points (3-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 54-52 loss to Creighton. Impact Thompson has averaged 9.4 points, four assists and 3.4 rebounds during 34.4 minutes over the last five games. He collected an 11-game high three steals, keeping busy on the defensive perimeter. Over the last 10 games, the senior has shot 50.8 percent from the floor but only averaged 6.1 attempts. Usually reserved, he has only reached double-digit field goal attempts twice this season, and both games ended in a loss. As the Bulldogs enter the final seven games of the season below .500, the Maryland native may need to tap back into his passing game, rekindling his December average of 6.5 assists.
