Scores seven in loss Mayen totaled seven points (2-9 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes in Thursday's 69-66 loss to Nevada.
Impact Mayen put up 13 points during Wednesday's season opener, but he was slightly less efficient from the floor against the Wolf Pack on Thursday. However, the transfer from TCU has seen plenty of playing time to begin his time with his new program, and he should be a factor in the Huskers' frontcourt this year.

Productive from charity stripe Allen recorded 17 points (3-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 9-13 FT), six rebounds, five steals and one assist over 28 minutes in Thursday's 69-66 loss to Nevada.
Impact Allen was inefficient from the floor Thursday, converting on just 27.3 percent of his field goals during the loss. However, he redeemed himself from the free-throw line while also racking up a team-leading five steals to help keep the Cornhuskers competitive. The Wichita State transfer has logged double-digit scoring totals in each of his first two games with Nebraska.

Leads Huskers in scoring Webster had 15 points (5-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals over 23 minutes in Wednesday's 102-55 win over McNeese State.
Impact Webster came off the bench in his first game with the Cornhuskers, but he saw ample playing time and led the team in scoring during the blowout win. The graduate transfer was quite productive over three seasons at Western Illinois and could carve out a significant role at Nebraska if he remains productive.

Productive despite injury Banton posted 14 points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds, six assists, four blocks and three steals over 22 minutes in Wednesday's 102-55 win over McNeese State.
Impact Banton briefly left Wednesday's season opener with a lower body injury, but he was only out of the game for a few minutes. He was a top performer in his debut with the Huskers, leading the team in assists, blocks and steals.

Returns to action Banton (lower body) is back on the floor, Sam McKewon of the Omaha World-Herald reports.
Impact Banton came down funny on his leg and left the game briefly. It appears it wasn't a big issue, as he was able to return to the floor not long after.

Limps off floor Banton landed funny and limped off the court in the second half of Wednesday's game against McNeese State, Sam McKewon of the Omaha World-Herald reports.
Impact Banton seems to be dealing with some type of lower body injury. His return is questionable. Banton would have a quick turnaround for Thursday's game against Nevada.

Starting Wednesday McGowens is starting Wednesday against McNeese State, Chris Basnett of the Lincoln Journal Star reports.
Impact McGowens was granted immediate eligibility for the 2020-21 season in October, and he'll start the season opener Wednesday. He should be the favorite to maintain a starting role for the Huskers this year after averaging 11.5 points and 3.6 assists for Pittsburgh last season.

Served lengthy suspension Walker will serve a 16-game suspension to begin the season before making his debut for Nebraska, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact The suspension stems from a violation of NCAA and team rules that occurred while Walker was with Tennessee. The junior transfer was expected to fill a rotational role for the Cornhuskers in 2020-21, but he'll now end up missing roughly half of the season. Walker had already sat out the entire 2019-20 campaign to comply with NCAA transfer rules.
