Quentin Diboundje - Coming off bench Diboundje is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Campbell.

Impact Diboundje has seen his minutes decrease over the last week. The 6-5 sophomore was averaging 9.7 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 22 minutes over his first six games but has managed a combined 22 minutes of action in his last two appearances. It's unclear if a move to the bench is permanent or not while he continues to try and get over his recent struggles.

David Kasanganay - Retreats to bench Kasanganay is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Campbell.

Impact Kasanganay has started each of the last five games, but that hasn't translated to a bigger role. The 6-2 senior averaged 1.6 points and 0.6 rebounds in just 11.8 minutes per game over that span. Kasanganay's struggles have likely landed him a spot on the bench for good and he could be headed for an even more reduced role.

Ezra Ausar - Inserted into starting five Ausar is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Campbell.

Impact Ausar is coming off his best game of the young season after posting 18 points (9-10 FG) and seven rebounds in 19 minutes of action Tuesday against South Carolina State. The standout performance has earned the 6-9 freshman a chance to start, at least for Friday's game. Ausar has managed to play over 20 minutes just once so far this season, but another impressive performance and he could vie for more time on the floor.

Benjamin Bayela - Entering starting five Bayela is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Campbell.

Impact Bayela will receive his first start of the year, but it's unclear how much fantasy managers should look into the lineup change after he's played under five minutes in two of the last three games. The 6-6 junior hasn't played over 20 minutes since Nov. 12 but it appears he could be in line for a bigger role against a weaker opponent in Campbell.

Brandon Johnson - Continues dominance inside Johnson closed with nine points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 79-65 victory over UT Arlington.

Impact Throughout the season, Johnson has been dominant in the paint. The 6-foot-8 forward is nearly averaging a double-double so far this season, averaging 14.8 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. Johnson also has three or more offensive rebounds in four straight games. As a freshman last season, Johnson started in just five games. This year, Johnson has started in all five of his appearances, taking on a much larger role and taking full advantage.

Wynston Tabbs - Scores 16 points in win Tabbs logged 16 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and one assist over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 79-65 victory over UT Arlington.

Impact Tabbs set a new season high on Wednesday, which was also his first game of the season scoring in double-figures. The senior guard shot very well from behind the arc, making three, three-point shots. Tabbs shot very efficiently from the floor overall, though did not provide the team with much else statistically. After transferring from Boston College over the offseason, Tabbs has entered off the bench in every game this season, though on Wednesday, he more than doubled his usual minutes while riding his hot hand.

Javon Small - Tallies 18 points Wednesday Small notched 18 points (6-16 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds and six assists over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 79-65 victory over UT Arlington.

Impact Wednesday marked Small's third game this season posting over 10 points, five rebounds and five assists, making plays all over the court for the Pirates thus far. Small currently leads the team in points per game (20.8) and assists per game (5.5), making the most of his minutes on the floor. Last season, Small appeared in only 16 games coming off the bench. As a routine starter this season, Small has excelled in his new role while shooting at a very efficient 49.3 percent on the year.

NOVEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

RJ Felton - Tallies double-double in win Felton accumulated 16 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and two steals across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 79-65 win over UT Arlington.

Impact Felton crashed the boards hard in Wednesday's win, collecting four offensive rebounds on his way to the double-double. The guard had not gathered more than five rebounds in a game this season prior to Wednesday. Felton has scored in double-figures in four games this season, averaging the third most points per game on the team (11.5).
