Puts up season-best 18 points Jack registered 18 points (7-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt) and a rebound across 12 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's win over NC State.

Impact Jack was one of 10 reserves that saw action for the Seminoles in this one, but he made his presence felt -- he put up a season-best scoring output that also surpassed the total combined of points he had scored in his previous five contests (17 points). This kind of production and efficiency is not sustainable for Jack, but it might boost his confidence moving forward.

Enters Wednesday's game Barnes came off the bench early in Wednesday's ACC matchup against NC State, Curt Weiler of the Tallahassee Democrat reports.

Impact Barnes was left out of the starting five and spotted riding a stationary bike on the side prior to tipoff, but it looks like the freshman will give it a go. He racked up an assist on a cross-court pass on one of his first possessions, so a regular day of production remains a possibility.

Riding bike on side Barnes was spotted riding a stationary bike prior to Wednesday's matchup against NC State, Curt Weiler of the Tallahassee Democrat reports.

Impact Barnes was left out of the starting five for the first time this season in favor of RayQuan Evans, and his presence on the bike may suggest a possible lower body injury is in play. It's unclear if the freshman is simply staying loose, or whether he'll ultimately try to give it a go.

Picks up first start Evans is in the starting lineup Wednesday against North Carolina State.

Impact Evans has primarily been a sixth man in his senior season, but he'll pick up his first start of the year in favor of freshman Scottie Barnes. The Seminoles haven't played a game since Dec. 29, and with no word of an injury yet for Barnes, this shakeup could be a result of what coach Leonard Hamilton has been seeing in practice.

Not starting against Wolfpack Barnes is not in the starting five Wednesday against NC State.

Impact No word of an injury has yet surfaced, so this lineup is a bit unique considering Barnes has started the last seven games for Florida State. He logged 29 minutes back on Dec. 29 against Clemson, posting 14 points, five assists and four rebounds. RayQyan Evans will start in his stead for the ACC matchup.

Fills stat sheet Tuesday Barnes recorded 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists, two steals and a block across 22 minutes in Tuesday's 77-67 loss against Clemson.

Impact Barnes paced the Seminoles in the loss and, in fact, he was just one of two players that reached the 10-point mark in a game where Florida State's offense sputtered -- they only shot 41.9 percent from the field and 28.1 percent from three-point range as a team. Barnes has scored 14 or more points in three of his last five games as well.

One rebound shy of double-double Polite posted 15 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-7 FT), nine rebounds, an assist, two steals and a block across 28 minutes in Monday's 72-59 win over Gardner Webb.

Impact Polite paced the Seminoles with his 15-point effort and was also the team's leader on the rebounding department, meaning he made his presence felt on both ends of the court. Polite has scored 10 or more points in four straight games, and he is averaging 11.3 points while shooting 60.0 percent from the field in that four-game span.

Close to double-double again Koprivica posted 14 points (4-5 FG, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds and two blocks across 23 minutes in Monday's 72-59 win over Gardner Webb.

Impact Koprivica ended just two boards shy of what would've been his first double-double of the season -- it was the third time in six games the big man failed to record a double-double due to that exact same reason. He continues to put up value, though, as he is averaging 10.2 points and 5.5 rebounds per game through his first six contests, all of them as a starter.
