Scores season-best 22 points Blacksher registered 22 points (7-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and four assists across 37 minutes during Friday's win over Nevada.

Impact Blacksher hadn't scored more than 15 points in any game this season, but he broke out in a big way here -- it was also the first time he made more than one three-pointer in the same game all season long. He will try to build off this performance when Grand Canyon takes on Arizona State on Sunday.

Comes off bench in season opener Zdor posted four points, four rebounds and an assist in 13 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 69-53 win over Grambling.

Impact Zdor averaged 3.9 points, 4.6 boards and 1.1 blocks in 15.0 minutes as a sophomore at Weber State in 2019-20, though he only started seven times. While it's still early in the season, he seems to be primed for a bench role once again unless Grand Canyon suffer from a rash of frontcourt injuries.

Limited impact as starter Frayer notched four points (1-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, an assist and a steal in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 69-53 win over Grambling.

Impact Frayer dealt with eligibility issues last season but those issues seem to be over now, as he started the season opener -- though he struggled to make an impact out there. He is likely to remain a starter as long as he remains eligible, though.
