Caleb Furst - Logs double-double in win Furst finished Thursday's 87-73 victory over Iowa with 11 points (5-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and 10 rebounds in 24 minutes.

Impact Furst hadn't had many big games in 2023 until recording his first double-double in 12 games since the new year. Should he make a habit of this late in the season, Furst would boost the potential of the Boilermakers in more important matchups.

Ethan Morton - Scores five points in win Morton closed with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Thursday's 87-73 win over Iowa.

Impact Morton has scored in double-figures just once all season but continues to rack up good minutes and maintain the space on the floor. Scoring boosts from Fletcher Loyer and Braden Smith mean there can be other options aside from Zach Edey too.

David Jenkins - Adds six points in loss Jenkins notched six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound and one assist in 17 minutes during Saturday's 79-74 loss to Indiana.

Impact Jenkins was tied for the third-most points on his team as Zach Edey was once again left without much support. With just two games in double figures all season, Jenkins hasn't shown himself as one to make up the difference in his role off the bench.

FEBRUARY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Braden Smith - Scores four in loss Smith finished Saturday's 79-74 loss to Indiana with four points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, six assists and three steals over 37 minutes.

Impact Smith failed to score more than 10 points for a fourth time in five games. He's done well elsewhere with nine rebounds and 18 assists in his last three games, but Smith and the Boilermakers will continue to struggle in big moments if Zach Edey can't get more scoring support beyond a single player.
