Ty Berry - Role diminishing Berry registered four points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one assist and one steal over 12 minutes during Sunday's 80-60 loss to Purdue.
Impact Berry came off the bench for the first time this season in this contest, as the Wildcats instead elected to use Julian Roper in the starting five. Berry has now collected a combined eight points over his last four games, while Roper has at least contributed, averaging 5.0 ppg over that same stretch. Berry is still capable of getting hot, as shown by a relatively recent 23-point performance of against the Buckeyes, but it appears the coaching staff may prefer more consistency in Big Ten play. Berry's next chance to make an impact will be Wednesday against Michigan.

It's not yet clear whether Roper will remain in the starting lineup on a long-term basis, but his recent uptick in playing time has been encouraging.
