Gytis Nemeiksa - Capitalizing when called uponNemeiksa produced six points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Monday's 78-76 loss to Oakland.

ImpactNemeiksa has started all seven of Xavier's contests thus far despite averaging a modest 24.9 minutes per game. His 57.1 percent shooting from the field and 47.1 percent shooting from beyond the arc comes with the asterisk of a limited sample size, but the 22-year-old import from Lithuania hitting the ground running bodes well for his rest-of-season outlook.

Dayvion McKnight - Facilitation continuesMcKnight ended Monday's 78-76 loss to Oakland with four points (2-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and eight assists in 34 minutes.

ImpactMcKnight has now posted back-to-back games with eight assists. Despite his 6-foot frame, McKnight was a quality rebounder across the last two seasons at Western Kentucky, averaging 5.5 and 5.0 rebounds per game, respectively. His rebounding prowess has transitioned to Xavier, as the fourth-year transfer is pulling down 4.3 rebounds per game despite a slight dip in playing time. From a scoring standpoint, his volume has been limited to 7.0 shots per game after attempting 13.2 per game last season, although a frigid start from beyond the arc is partially to blame as well.

Trey Townsend - Leads upset over XavierTownsend supplied 28 points (11-18 FG, 6-10 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Monday's 78-76 victory over Xavier.

ImpactTownsend was held to a season-low four points on 2-of-11 shooting just a week ago against Marshall, but the junior wing's bounce-back effort here helped the Grizzlies log a signature win on the road against a power-conference opponent. He's been a staple all four years with the program, and it's been more of the same this season, as he leads Oakland in scoring (16.7 ppg) and rebounding (8.3 rpg) following this effort.
