Jacob Gilyard - Shooting woes continue Sunday Gilyard finished Sunday's 76-69 loss to Saint Louis with 12 points (5-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and four steals across 39 minutes.
Impact Gilyard has been a fine source of steals and assists to date, averaging 2.1 and 6.4, respectively, the latter of which is a career high. But he's also shooing only 33.3 percent and averaging a personal worst 9.9 points. The Spiders are off to a disappointing 9-6 start but have an inviting upcoming schedule, which could make Gilyard an interesting buy low option.

Tyler Burton - Breakout campaign continues at STL Burton closed Sunday's 76-69 loss to Saint Louis with 24 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 12-14 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes.
Impact Burton now has two double-doubles in his last four games, has topped 20 points seven times to date and has at least six boards in all but two outings. For as much as Richmond returned as fifth and six year talent, it's been Burton who has emerged, averaging a robust 18.2 points and 6.9 boards while shooting 52.7 percent nightly.

Grant Golden - Minor bright spot for Spiders Golden accumulated 14 points (5-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 26 minutes during Thursday's 83-56 loss to Saint Joseph's.
Impact Golden was just one of two Spiders in double-digits in what was a woeful offensive performance, where they shot 27.8 percent from the floor and 18.2 per 3-point range. Golden was coming off of his first double-double of the season, and is averaging 16.2 points on the year, his highest mark since his 2018 season. The entire team will look to bounce back at St. Louis Sunday.

Dji Bailey - Good to go for Friday Bailey (ankle) will be available for Friday's game against N.C. State, John O'Connor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.
Impact Bailey did not play in last Saturday's game due to a left ankle injury. He should continue his normal role coming off the bench and playing good defense on the wing.

Dji Bailey - Won't play Saturday Bailey will miss Saturday's game against Toledo due to a left ankle injury, John O'Connor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.
Impact Bailey typically sees consistent work off the bench for the Spiders but will leave the rotation down a member Saturday. Andre Gustavson could absorb the majority of Bailey's voided minutes in his season debut.

Andre Gustavson - Season debut on tap Gustavson (illness) will return to action Saturday versus Toledo, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Gustavson hasn't appeared in a contest yet this season but figures to be a big part of the rotation for Richmond when he's back in a full capacity, averaging 4.4 points and 2.2 rebounds over 17.3 minutes per game in his 18 appearances last season. It wouldn't be shocking if his minutes are capped in his first taste of action Saturday.

Andre Gustavson - Expected back Saturday Gustavson (illness) is expected to make his season debut for Richmond on Saturday versus Toledo, John O'Connor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.
Impact Gustavson has undergone a pair of hip surgeries and was also sidelined recently due to illness since the last time he took the floor for the Spiders. The senior was a significant part of the rotation prior to the injuries, averaging 17.3 minutes per game over 18 contests in 2020-21. Gustavson figures to be limited out of the gate, given his extended absence but should grow his playing time as he rounds into form.

Jacob Gilyard - Sets NCAA steals mark In recording a steal Sunday at Northern Iowa, Gilyard became the NCAA's All-Time leader in steals, passing John Linehan with 386 thefts in his career.
Impact Gilyard finished the game with eight points, four assists, three boards and his record-setting theft. Gilyard has played 126 games in his career, comparable to Linehan's 122, but with this extra year granted, he's going to sail way past this number and likely set a mark unattainable by others. The fifth-year senior is averaging 11.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 3.1 steals on the season, number that are well in line with his career marks.
