Efficient from field Sunday Omier finished with 12 points (6-7 FG), four rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 80-53 win over Louisville.

Impact Omier only missed one shot in what was another strong performance, and his role as one of Miami's biggest offensive threats is set in stone. He has scored in double digits in each of his last seven games and has done it with efficiency, putting up 15.1 points per game while making 70.1 percent of his shots in that span.

Scores team-high 23 points in win Pack accumulated 23 points (9-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 79-56 victory over St. Francis Brooklyn.

Impact Pack has started in each of Miami's six games this season and has looked impressive, registering double-digit points in four of those outings. This 23-point performance was a season-high mark for him, and he is averaging 12.5 points this season while shooting 42.6 percent from the field.

Excels defensively Wednesday Omier recorded 13 points (4-6 FG, 5-8 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 79-56 win over St. Francis Brooklyn.

Impact Aside from recording his third double-double of the season, Omier delivered a season-high mark in steals. A consistent two-way performer for the Hurricanes, the former Arkansas State star is now averaging 14.0 points and 10.2 rebounds per game in the current campaign while scoring at least 13 points in each of his last four outings.

Plays two minutes in debut Jovanovich (ankle) played two minutes in Wednesday's win over St. Francis.

Impact After missing the first five games of the season due to an ankle injury, Jovanovich was finally able to make his collegiate debut Wednesday. It's unlikely he'll have much of a role in the rotation this season, but his participation Wednesday suggests he'll be available if needed going forward.

Decent output against Maryland Miller produced 18 points (7-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Sunday's 88-70 loss to Maryland.

Impact The Hurricanes didn't have a good performance Sunday, but Miller was one of the standout performers for Miami. He's been delivering good numbers of late and has scored at least 18 points in three of his last four outings.

NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores season-high 22 points Wong amassed 22 points (8-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Sunday's 88-70 loss to Maryland.

Impact Wong surpassed the 20-point plateau for the first time this season, and the junior is having an excellent season from a scoring perspective since he's putting up 15.2 points per contest through his first five appearances. Even though his role as Miami's main playmaker is not under threat, Wong is on pace to average his second-best-ever scoring output with the Hurricanes.

NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 18 against Providence Wong produced 18 points (7-14 FG, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Saturday's 74-64 win over Providence.

Impact Wong only scored five points against Florida A&M the last time out, but he bounced back here to record a strong output across the board. The veteran floor general has scored at least 15 points in three of his first four outings, but he's also averaging 4.5 rebounds and 4.3 assists per tilt, making him a key cog on offense for the Hurricanes.

NOVEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Puts up double-double Saturday Omier racked up 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-5 FT), 12 rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 74-64 victory over Providence.

Impact Omier recorded his second double-double of the season Saturday, but he's also notched close to 20 points in each of his last two outings. The challenge of playing in a new conference has not affected Omier so far, and while the season is still young, his performances have been encouraging. He's averaging 14.3 points and 11.3 rebounds per contest.

NOVEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goes for 12 off bench Joseph contributed 12 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 87-61 win over Florida A&M.

Impact Joseph has yet to start a game for the Hurricanes in his career, but he's playing a decent role through the first three outings of the campaign. He's logged at least 20 minutes in two of his three appearances, but this was the first time in which he scored in double digits. Due to the nature of his bench role, however, his fantasy upside isn't very high.

NOVEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Best game of season Tuesday Omier recorded 21 points (10-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 87-61 win over Florida A&M.

Impact Omier posted decent numbers in his first two appearances, but he broke out in a big way Tuesday after filling out the stat sheet and contributing across the board in all categories. He was efficient from the field and also left his mark on both ends of the court, and through three games, Omier is averaging 12.7 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals per contest.

Comes close to double-double Miller racked up 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Friday's 79-65 win over UNCG.

Impact Miller ended just three boards shy of posting his first double-double of the season, and while he delivered another impressive outing when it comes to peripheral stats, he took a step forward in scoring after delivering just nine points in the season opener. Miller averaged 10.0 points per game last season, his first with the program, but he figures to have a bigger role as a starter this time around.

Goes for 15 points Friday Wong notched 15 points (5-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 38 minutes during Friday's 79-65 victory over UNCG.

Impact Wong has enjoyed a strong start to the season with back-to-back games of at least 15 points with multiple rebounds and assists. The veteran point guard is expected to be heavily involved in Miami's offensive scheme, and he should have a similar usage rate to the one he posted during the 2021-22 campaign, where he was one of the driving forces of the team's offense.

NOVEMBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 16 in season debut Pack chipped in 16 points (5-13 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes during Monday's 67-54 victory over Lafayette.

Impact Pack joined the Hurricanes after spending the first two years of his college career with Kansas State, and all signs point to him having a prominent role in the backcourt next to veteran point guard Isaiah Wong. Pack averaged 17.4 points per game during his sophomore year with the Wildcats.

NOVEMBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Double-doubles in program debut Omier notched 11 points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 15 rebounds and one assist in 35 minutes during Monday's 67-54 victory over Lafayette.

Impact Omier was a prominent figure for Arkansas State during the first two years of his college career and averaged a double-double in both seasons while starting 50 of a possible 52 games, so there's no reason to think he shouldn't have a big role with the Hurricanes. The season-opening performance certainly backs that up.
