Javon Small scored 23 points and had 10 assists to lead West Virginia to a 73-55 victory over TCU

FEBRUARY 26 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Playmaking skills on full display Small recorded 23 points (8-16 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Tuesday's 73-55 win over TCU.

Impact Small posted his third double-double of the season, dropping 23 points along with 10 dimes during Tuesday's stomping of TCU. The senior point guard, who also added five boards and a steal, had previously accomplished the feat with double-digit rebounding totals but his season-high assist mark led to his attainment of the deed Tuesday. Small also drained a season-high 6-of-11 from downtown as he continues to lead West Virginia towards the NCAA tournament and make a push towards being named to the All-Big 12 first team.

Impact Small played 41 minutes and struggled from long range but still managed to pace the Mountaineers in scoring and assists during Saturday's tough OT loss to Baylor. The senior point guard reached the 20-point plateau for the 11th time this season and the sixth time across 14 conference games. Small has stepped up his ball-distribution over the last five games, collecting 7.8 helpers during that stretch while adding 16.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.8 thefts.

Javon Small scored 19 points to go with nine assists and West Virginia beat Cincinnati 63-50 to snap a three-game losing streak

FEBRUARY 2 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Season high nine assists Small amassed 19 points (6-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, nine assists, two blocks and two steals across 36 minutes during Sunday's 63-50 win over Cincinnati.

Impact Small drained four from beyond the arc en route to a 19-point performance while finishing one assist shy of a double-double. The assist total was a season high for Small who also contributed defensively with two steals and two blocked shots. The senior point guard was coming off a season-low eight points, the first time all year he's failed to reach double figures. The Mountaineers are one of the surprises of the Big 12 this season, currently sitting at .500 in conference play thanks in large part to the play of Small, who's averaged 18.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.5 steals across 36.9 minutes through 10 conference games.

Another huge performance Small recorded 27 points (9-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and four steals across 35 minutes during Saturday's 64-57 win over Iowa State.

Impact Small continues to come up huge for the Mountaineers, posting his sixth performance with greater than 25 points. It was the fourth time this season Small has reached at least 20 points, five rebounds and five assists in a game. Despite playing the entire conference slate thus far without star forward Tucker DeVries, West Virginia has recorded a surprising 4-2 record including top-10 wins over Kansas and Iowa State thanks in large part to the exploits of Small. The senior point guard has averaged 20.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.5 steals across 37.2 minutes during Big-12 play.

Putting team on his back Small ended with 26 points (6-17 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 10-12 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Sunday's 78-70 win over Colorado.

Impact Small had yet another big-time performance, dishing out seven assists while topping 20 points for the seventh time this season. The senior guard has been instrumental in West Virginia's early 3-1 start in conference play, especially considering the team was missing forward Tucker DeVries (upper body) for the seventh-consecutive game. Through four conference games, Small has averaged 20.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.0 steals per contest.
