Devin Carter - Great again Sunday Carter logged 22 points (8-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-9 FT), five steals, four rebounds, four blocks and one assist across 28 minutes during Providence's 74-59 win Sunday at DePaul.

Impact Providence played three games from Dec. 19 to Jan. 1. Carter logged point tallies of 20, 21 and 22 across that span. The scoring upswing did not affect his defensive excellence continued from 2022. While recently averaging 21.0 points, Carter also recorded a steal-plus-block rate of 5.7.

Jared Bynum - No longer quiet Bynum logged 18 points (5-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 33 minutes during Providence's 74-59 win Sunday at DePaul.

Impact Bynum averaged 5.4 points from Nov. 22 to Dec. 18. Despite not scoring much in between those dates, he was significantly valued across Providence's last three games played. The senior guard averaged 15.0 points during that three-matchup span. Ideally for Bynum, those three games indicate how well he will score across a lot of 2023.
