13 points in start Harper had 13 points (5-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 0-3 FT) to go along with six rebounds, two assists and two steals Saturday against Iowa.
Impact Harper was a surprise scratch last Tuesday due to an ankle injury, leaving Montez Mathis to an expanded role in his stead. Harper's absence ultimately only lasted one game, though both players were productive in an up-tempo game against Iowa. It looks like Harper will be good to go for a Tuesday matchup against Michigan State.
