Gaige Prim - Limited by illness Prim contributed zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 10 minutes during Wednesday's 81-55 win over Little Rock.

Impact Prim had been averaging 17.4 points and 9.4 rebounds prior to Wednesday's contest, so his 10 minutes and zero points clearly raised a red flag. After the game, Wyatt Wheeler of the Springfield News-Leader reported that Prim was under the weather, which clears things up. He'll have a few days to recover before a Saturday matchup against Oral Roberts.
