Paces Cardinals in Tuesday win Davis notched 21 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 75-54 win over Western Kentucky.
Impact Davis was one of three Louisville players that surpassed the 15-point mark, but he has been playing very well following an uneventful performance in the season opener. His scoring figures have been rising on a steady basis and has topped the 10-point mark in three straight contests while shooting 60 percent from the field and 40 percent from three-point range in that stretch.

Excellent performance once again Johnson registered 17 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), eight assists, six rebounds and four steals across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 75-54 win over Western Kentucky.
Impact Johnson was the best player on the Cardinals squad and stuffed the stat sheet admirably, as he made a huge impact on both ends of the court. He has scored in double digits in two straight contests but his fantasy upside isn't just tied to his scoring figures, as he is also averaging 5.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game over his first four appearances.

Comes close to double-double Withers posted 20 points (8-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), nine rebounds and an assist in 32 minutes during Sunday's 86-64 win over Prairie View A&M.
Impact Withers' production has been steadily rising this season, as he began the season opener with eight points but has topped the 10-point mark in his last two appearances. More importantly, Withers seems healthy from the ankle injury that bugged him before the start of the season and should continue being a regular name in the Cardinals' starting five going forward. His next chance to play will come Tuesday against Western Kentucky.

Impact Slazinski might have come off the bench but finished fourth in the Cardinals when it comes to minutes played, and he was one of four players that reached the 10-point mark.

He has come off the bench in Louisville's first two games of the season and that's expected to be his role moving forward.

Impact Jones has always had the reputation of being a top scorer, and he backed that up in the season opener Wednesday -- pacing the Cardinals in points but also leading the team in both rebounds and assists. It was an impressive performance for the senior, one that he'd like to repeat Friday against Seton Hall.

Impact Williamson was doubtful for the season opener with a knee problem but was healthy enough to start, and he ended being the team's second-highest scorer while also making a big impact on both ends of the court. Deemed as healthy, Williamson should remain in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Seton Hall.
