K.J. Windham - Starts in collegiate debutWindham accumulated 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and two steals across 28 minutes during Monday's 90-46 win over Lehigh.

ImpactWindham got a start with the Wildcats in his first collegiate game, posting 10 points, six assists, three rebounds and two steals in the contest. The 6-foot-3 freshman, a top-150 recruit in the class of 2024, will slot in next to another newcomer, Jalen Leach, in Northwestern's backcourt this season.

Jalen Leach - Productive in program debutLeach produced 12 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Monday's 90-46 victory over Lehigh.

ImpactLeach posted 12 points, five rebounds, six assists and a steal, logging a productive night on both ends of the floor for the Wildcats in their season opener. The 6-foot-4 senior, a transfer from Fairfield is far from a 1-for-1 replacement for Boo Buie, but he will have a lot of opportunity to fill the shoes of the former Northwestern guard.

Nick Martinelli - Impressive in openerMartinelli amassed 26 points (9-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-9 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals over 28 minutes during Monday's 90-46 win over Lehigh.

ImpactMartinelli finished one point shy of matching his career high, posting 26 points, 10 rebounds and two steals in a rout of Lehigh. The 6-foot-7 junior averaged 8.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists on 26 minutes per game last season, and took advantage of Brooks Barnhizer's absence in a lopsided season opener.

Brooks Barnhizer - Out for Wildcats' openerBarnhizer (foot) is out for Northwestern's opener against Lehigh, SB Nation reports.

ImpactBarnhzer is expected to be a huge piece for the Wildcats this season after his remarkable 2023-2024 campaign, in which he averaged 14.6 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.8 steals. He'll miss the opener, and potentially longer, however, with a foot injury that's still nagging the wing.
