Limited in return Wertz had three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and two turnovers across 18 minutes in Sunday's 77-63 loss to Notre Dame. Impact Wertz had been seeing his role grow in the offense since being declared eligible, but an ankle injury forced him to sit out Jan. 2 against North Carolina. The Irish saw one of the tougher defensive matchups in the ACC on Sunday, plus Wertz came off the bench and saw his second-lowest minutes total of the season. Look for the Santa Clara transfer to begin gradually ramping up his minutes, though he has another tough matchup on tap Wednesday at Virginia.
