Impact Isaacs made four three-pointers for the second consecutive day and also put in his best shooting effort from the floor this season, shooting 41.2% on 17 shots. The sophomore point guard has struggled from the field with Thursday's effort raising his field-goal percentage to just 31.1% on the season. Despite his difficulties, Isaacs is averaging 13.8 points per game, in large part due to his ability to get to the line. Although he did not get to the line on Thursday, he had made 19 free throws in 25 attempts in his previous four games.

Impact After producing 19 points in the opener, Isaacs was less efficient from the field on Sunday, making only one field goal. However, the seven boards were a career high for Isaacs and the five assists were one shy of his high total as a freshman last season. Isaacs will play a key role this season as the top ball-handler for the Red Raiders.

Across 25 games with 24 starts, Isaacs averaged 11.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists, though he shot just 36.8 percent from the floor. Still, this extensive action early on in Isaacs' career is promising for his production in years to come.

The 6-2 freshman had started all 19 games he played in before getting hurt, averaging 11.6 points, 2.8 assists, 1.9 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 28.8 minutes per contest.

The 6-foot-2 freshman has averaged 11.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists across 19 starts this season, and his next chance to suit up will come versus the in-state rival Longhorns on Monday. In Isaacs' absence, Lamar Washington will likely start his third game in a row Saturday. On the bright side, Justin Apodaca of Rivals reported prior to the game that Isaacs was seen shooting in street clothes and was no longer sporting a walking boot. Still, a return Monday seems iffy at best.

Impact Isaacs appeared to be in a lot of pain and was clutching at his right ankle on the floor before eventually being assisted back to the locker room.

The 6-2 freshman has acclimated nicely to the collegiate level, averaging 12.1 points and 2.9 assists over 29.4 minutes per contest.
