Kansas State visits the No. 6 Texas Longhorns after Markquis Nowell scored 23 points in the Wildcats' 82-76 overtime victory against the West Virginia MountaineersJANUARY 2, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Abayomi Iyiola - 14 points in Big 12 tipoff Iyiola logged 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and one block in 22 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 82-76 OT win over West Virginia.
Impact Iyiola was inserted into the Wildcats' starting lineup with David N'Guessan sitting out with an undisclosed injury. As a result, the senior backup was able to put up season highs in points and field-goal attempts, marking just his second double-digit scoring performance of the season. With N'Guessan's injury status now up in the air, N'Guessan could in line to start moving forward. Kansas State's next come will come versus Texas on Tuesday.

Impact N'Guessan is expected to return before the Wildcats' 2022-23 season ends. However, his updated status indicates he may sit out indefinitely.
JANUARY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Markquis Nowell - Does it all in OT win Nowell notched 23 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 10-13 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists and seven steals over 43 minutes during Saturday's 82-76 OT win over West Virginia.
Impact Nowell had one of his best outings of the season despite his continued inefficiency as a shooter. The 5-foot-8 point guard tallied at least 10 assists for the fifth time this season while only turning the ball over three times. Nowell also made his presence felt as a pest on the defensive end of the court, and he's now averaged a career-high 2.4 steals over 13 games this season. He also ranks second in the nation with 8.5 assists per game, and he should continue to dish out plenty of good looks to the rest of the Wildcats' starting five, all of whom have shot at least 45 percent from the field so far this season.

Abayomi Iyiola - Appears available Iyiola (undisclosed) appears available for Saturday's matchup against Nebraska, Kellis Robinett of the Wichita Eagle reports.
Impact Iyiola has missed four straight games due to an undisclosed injury, but it appears he'll return to the mix Saturday. Across his first six appearances (one start) with Kansas State, the 6-foot-10 big man has posted 3.0 points and 2.3 rebounds in 11.8 minutes per game.

Takeaways from Kansas State's 98-50 basketball victory over Incarnate Word Instant reaction to Kansas State’s latest victory on the basketball court.
DECEMBER 11, 2022 • KANSASCITY.COM
Dorian Finister - Significant usage in lopsided win Finister finished with 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal in 22 minutes during Sunday's 98-50 win over UIW.
Impact Finister saw the first significant playing time of his career during this blowout win. As a result, the 6-foot-5 freshman finished as one of seven Kansas State players to finish with at least 10 points versus Incarnate Word. Finister was tabbed as a potential redshirt candidate heading into the 2022-23 campaign, though he has now appeared in six of the Wildcats' 10 games this season. Therefore, it's possible he could continue to play a sporadic role off the bench moving forward.
DECEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cam Carter - Solid performance in easy win Carter chipped in 10 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Sunday's 98-50 win over UIW.
Impact Carter notched his second-highest scoring performance of the season, as seven Kansas State players put up at least 10 points against Incarnate Word. The Mississippi State transfer also converted just 38.9 percent of his six field-goal attempts per game coming into Sunday, so it's not worth putting much stock in any results from this blowout win. The Wildcats will next play Saturday, Dec. 17 at home versus Nebraska.
DECEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
David N'Guessan - Perfect from the floor Sunday N'Guessan logged 12 points (5-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 19 minutes during Sunday's 98-50 win over UIW.
Impact N'Guessan converted all of his field-goal attempts for the second game in a row. However, this has come in back-to-back blowouts against lower-level competition for the Wildcats. The 6-foot-9 junior also put up more than 10 points just once while taking 4.1 field-goal attempts per game through the first nine games of the season. Therefore, it's unwise to expect similar production versus better opponents moving forward. Kansas State's next game will Saturday, Dec. 17 at home against the 6-5 Nebraska Cornhuskers.
DECEMBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Abayomi Iyiola - DNP again Saturday Iyiola (undisclosed) did not play during the Wildcats' 98-50 win Sunday versus Incarnate Word.
