Jimmy Bell - Near double-double in win Bell closed Wednesday's 71-56 win over Arizona State with 13 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes. Impact Bell, who averaged 4.8 points and 5.2 rebounds in 18.5 minutes per game across 34 starts for West Virginia last season, has stepped into a large role with Mississippi State. KeShawn Bryant (foot) and Tolu Smith (foot) are missing time with injury, with neither returning until mid-December at the earliest. Gai Chol logged 10 minutes Monday, but Bell should have the lion's share of center minutes for the short-term future.
