Simon Wright - Minimal playing time FridayWright chipped in no counting stats across five minutes during Friday's 81-65 win over Illinois.
ImpactAlthough Wright made his first start of the season during Friday's victory, he didn't see an uptick in playing time and failed to record any counting stats. He'll presumably return to his bench role going forward.

Donta Scott - Dominant despite bench roleScott ended Friday's 81-65 victory over Illinois with 25 points (9-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block in 34 minutes.
ImpactScore came off the bench for the first time this season but had plenty of playing time and dropped a season-high 25 points in the win. It wouldn't be surprising to see the junior reclaim his starting role going forward, but he should remain productive regardless of his starting status.

Benjamin Bosmans-Verdonk - Scores six in startBosmans-Verdonk logged six points (3-4 FG), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes during Friday's 81-65 loss to Maryland.
ImpactBosmans-Verdonk made his first career start Friday since Kofi Cockburn (concussion) was sidelined, but he failed to carve out much production. While the redshirt sophomore could retain his starting role if Cockburn misses additional time, he's unlikely to have a significant role for the Illini.
