Paces Bears in win Nunn produced 16 points (6-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds and three steals across 35 minutes during Saturday's 72-67 victory over Arkansas.

Impact Nunn drained four triples on his way to 16 points to lead Baylor Saturday. Nunn also added three steals defensively as he and the rest of his Bear teammates washed out the stench of their blowout loss to Gonzaga. The senior guard shot just under 44% from beyond the arc last season, his first in Waco, and put together a nice bounce back effort Saturday after failing to convert on any of his five shots from downtown in the previous game.

Explodes for 27 Nunn ended with 27 points (8-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and three steals in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 79-62 victory over Oklahoma.

Impact Nunn exploded on Tuesday with an efficient performance, shooting 66.7% both from the field and from behind the arc. The 27 points are a total he's topped only once previously in his career--a 31-point effort last year for VCU--while the 12 shot attempts from the field, six threes and nine attempted threes each represented a season high. The junior win also added three steals on the defensive end which represented his highest total in over a month. Nunn is a capable scorer as he's proven periodically this year with six performances of 15 or more points and a shooting percentage from three of more than 40%. Nunn is averaging a career-high in scoring (9.7), rebounds (2.6), assists (2.2), field-goal percentage (45.0%), made three-pointers per game (1.2) and three-point percentage (40.9%), all despite playing a career-low 26.5 minutes per contest.

Productive performance Nunn supplied 15 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals in 21 minutes during Friday's 107-48 win over Mississippi Valley State.

Impact It was the first double-digit scoring output in five games for Nunn, who drained all four of his three-point attempts. Dunn also contributed on the defensive end with four steals in just 21-minutes of action. Nunn has started every game for the Bears but after a solid four-game start to the season that saw him average just under 15 points and 1.8 steals per game, his production has dried up since, averaging just 7.3 points, 1.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.9 steals. After a hot start, the Bears had lost their previous two games and could certainly benefit from more efficient outings like this moving forward from the junior wing.

Provides rebounding help in win Nunn logged five points (2-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 68-56 victory over Dayton.

Impact Nunn didn't score much, but his six rebounds were crucial towards helping the Rams secure the A-10 title. The sophomore guard also had a 3:1 assist-to-turnover ratio, a trend he will hope to continue into the NCAA Tournament. However, the Michigan native will need to provide more consistent scoring help if VCU hopes to make a deep run in March.
