Sahvir Wheeler - Dishes 14 assists in victoryWheeler notched 12 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, 14 assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Friday's 86-52 win over North Florida.
ImpactWheeler was able to set a new career high in assists while recording his third double-digit distribution effort of the season. He's also had double-digit scoring efforts in all but one game this season, which is at least partially due to a five percent increase in three-point shooting. He'll continue to serve as the Wildcats' primary point guard moving forward.

Daimion Collins - Picks up start FridayCollins finished Friday's 86-52 win over North Florida with 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one block in 25 minutes.
ImpactCollins has seen his playing time grow of late due to the absence of Lance Ware (ankle), but the five-star freshman was awarded his first start of the season, as Keion Brooks missed this contest due to illness. Even with Ware returning, Collins was able to post a career-high in minutes played, in addition to matching his season-best rebounding total. A fully healthy frontcourt likely means less minutes to go around for anyone other than Oscar Tshiebwe, but Collins is starting to prove that he can handle more minutes when called upon.

Lance Ware - Back after three-game absenceWare (ankle) registered four points (2-3 FG) and one rebound across seven minutes during Friday's 86-52 victory over North Florida.
ImpactWare missed three games due to injury, but was back to his regular reserve center role in this contest. Oscar Tshiebwe has the five locked down for Kentucky while Daimion Collins has even seen his minutes grow of late, so it may be a struggle for Ware to see consistent playing time, even when healthy.

Jacob Toppin - Back from shoulder injuryToppin (shoulder) accumulated three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 10 minutes during Friday's 86-52 win over North Florida.
ImpactToppin participated in warmups prior to the contest and ultimately made his return from a four-game absence, though the Wildcats didn't need to utilize him much here. Toppin will presumably be a bigger rotation factor as he gets back into game shape and the competition rises, especially considering he logged 23 minutes in the season opener against Duke.
