Tramon Mark - Struggles vs. New OrleansMark finished with five points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes during Thursday's 98-62 victory over New Orleans.

ImpactMark missed all of his shots from downtown and couldn't consistently find his shot even in a blowout win over New Orleans. The guard has been streaky this season, having his quieter nights. Thursday was one of them. He'll look to begin to improve his overall efficiency as SEC play draws closer.

Chendall Weaver - Consecutive double-digit outingsWeaver recorded 12 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Thursday's 98-62 victory over New Orleans.

ImpactWeaver scored double digit points in back-to-back games for the first time this season. The guard has been re-inserted into the starting lineup, and he's rewarding the Longhorns with solid outings. Starter or not, Weaver will continue to be a key - if not overly explosive - cog in this Texas rotation.

Jordan Pope - Preposterous scoring outputPope ended Thursday's 98-62 victory over New Orleans with 42 points (15-21 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 33 minutes.

ImpactPope absolutely exploded with a 42-point outburst against New Orleans. His previous high on the season had been 17 points, which he scored in the game prior. Pope really seems to be finding his stroke, as he hit an unreal 8-of-12 three pointers Thursday night. He'll look to stay hot against Northwestern State on Dec. 29.

Arthur Kaluma - Third double-double of 2024-2025Kaluma provided 15 points (5-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Thursday's 98-62 win over New Orleans.

ImpactKaluma continued to be effective both as a scorer and on the glass for the Longhorns as SEC play inches nearer. The senior has gotten off to a great start this season, and has notably improved his efficiency (55.8 percent from the field, 55.7 percent from downtown).
