Trey Alexander - Struggle with shotAlexander ended Saturday's 54-48 loss to Villanova with eight points (2-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 40 minutes.

ImpactAlexander logged a team-high 40 minutes, but he was unable to convert his usage into offensive productivity. Despite averaging just 6.8 points on 44.0 percent shooting -- and 28.2 percent from three -- Alexander is hot at the right time. The freshman has scored in double figures in five of his last seven contests.

Noah Horchler - Vanishes againHorchler finished Friday's 85-58 loss to Creighton with two points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds in 30 minutes.

Poor performance aside, Horchler was also uninvolved for the first half of Providence's narrow victory over Butler. The senior will look to bounce back with the NCAA Tournament on the horizon.
