Payton Willis - Scores 15 in loss Willis chipped in 15 points (6-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals in 40 minutes during Wednesday's 71-69 loss to Michigan State.

Impact Though Joey Hauser came through with a buzzer-beating bucket to send Michigan State to victory, Curry nearly carried the Golden Gophers to an upset win on the road. The sixth-year senior established a new career high with 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 FT) and added seven rebounds, one assist and one block in 30 minutes, but the performance was tainted by the ankle injury. The 6-foot-9, 240-pound center has a long history of health issues, but he had been highly durable leading up to Wednesday, appearing in each of the Golden Gophers' first 14 games. He now looks at risk of missing his first game of the season Sunday versus Iowa.

Impact Stephens was one of three Gophers to score in double figures Sunday after he had been held to single-digit scoring totals in each of his last two appearances. However, the team was unable to keep up with the Hoosiers in the defeat. He's topped 10 points in four of his last seven appearances and has averaged 10.6 points and 3.0 rebounds in 31.7 minutes per game during that time.

Impact Sutherlin has been the top reserve guard this season for the Gophers, but he sat out the second half last week against Illinois due to a sore ankle. While he appears to be moving around well in warmups, it's not perfectly clear if a decision has yet been made on his status.
