De'Vion Harmon - Continues prolific scoring SaturdayHarmon closed with 20 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.
ImpactHarmon logged double-digit points for the seventh game in a row and the 20th time in his 25 starts this season. The 6-foot-2 senior has not provided much of any value as a three-point shooter this season, converting just 24.6 percent of his 2.6 three-point attempts per game. Nevertheless, Harmon has still averaged 13.3 points per game on the year thanks to his much more efficient 44.9 field-goal percentage, and he's averaged 19.7 points per game over the last three outings. Harmon has also posted 2.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.8 steals while committing just 1.6 turnovers per contest, making him a very safe and consistent fantasy option.

Lamar Washington - 13 points in short outingWashington accumulated 13 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and five steals over 19 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.
ImpactWashington moved back to the bench after starting each of the previous two games with starting point guard Pop Isaacs (ankle) sidelined. However, that didn't stop the 6-foot-4 Washington from posting season highs in both points and steals. The freshman didn't put in the cleanest outings over his two previous starts, averaging 4.5 turnovers. He also gave up four more turnovers during Saturday's win, so it's unlikely he'll work his way back into the starting lineup even if Isaacs misses his sixth game in a row Monday versus Texas.

Markquis Nowell - Inefficient in double-digit lossNowell racked up 18 points (5-19 FG, 1-10 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, four assists and four steals over 39 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 loss to Texas Tech.
ImpactNowell posted logged 18 points for the second consecutive game, though this game in an extremely inefficient outing that included seven turnovers from the 5-foot-8 point guard. The senior has put up massive stats this season with 16.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 2.3 steals while playing 36.2 minutes per game. However, much of his scoring production has come from his consistent ability to get to the charity stripe (5.7 attempts per game), as he's only shot 39 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from beyond the three-point arc. Nowell has now committed 24 turnovers over his last four games, pushing his average up to 3.6 per game on the season. Nevertheless, his massive usage will still make Nowell one of the most prolific fantasy scorers in the entire Big 12.

Nae'Qwan Tomlin - Plays just 18 minutesTomlin provided 10 points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 18 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 71-63 loss to Texas Tech.
ImpactTomlin has been a significant contributor down low for Kansas State this season with 10.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals while playing 27.9 minutes per game over 25 starts. However, he's now played just 18 minutes in each of the Wildcats' past two games, accumulating 14 points, 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals. It's likely not worth putting too much stock in these short outings, as they came in an 82-61 blowout loss to TCU followed by Saturday's game, which he fouled out of. Tomlin will look to stay on the court Tuesday against Oklahoma.

Fardaws Aimaq - Unimpressive across 23 minutesAimaq (foot) totaled two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and three steals in 23 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.
ImpactAimaq logged the same number of points and turnovers without compensating for them using rebounds. However, the center logging 23 minutes indicates the Red Raiders are alright with him playing a lot. Fantasy managers should not be surprised if Aimaq returns to Texas Tech's starting lineup sooner than later. After his first return this season, the team immediately had him start its next game.
