Keyshawn Hall - Explodes for 26 Hall supplied 26 points (9-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 100-94 win over Florida Atlantic.
Impact Hall played a team-high 36 minutes while exploding for a season-best 26 points on just 14 shot attempts. Hall, who already has a double-double to his credit this season, also added seven boards during UCF's win. The junior forward has struggled with his shot over the first two games, shooting just 33.3% entering Tuesday's contest, but shot 64.3% including going 2-for-3 from downtown.

Darius Johnson - Rebounds with 21-point effort Johnson notched 21 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 100-94 victory over Florida Atlantic.
Impact Johnson rebounded from a seven point effort in his last game to drain six of nine from the field, including shooting 4-for-7 from downtown to post 21 points and five assists across 32 minutes. Johnson has spent his entire collegiate career in Orlando with UCF, a true rarity in today's landscape, and has improved in each of his first three seasons, culminating with averaging 15.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.2 steals last year. He's looking to take one more step forward this season and so far, so good as he's posted at least 20 points in two of three games, averaging 17.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.3 steals across 36 minutes thus far.

Impact Ivy-Curry drained four threes on his way to 22 points while also contributing a smattering of production in the ancillary statistics. He started the season shooting just 2-for-13 from downtown through two games but found his stroke in converting of half of his eight shots from behind the arc Tuesday. The senior guard has improved his scoring in each of his first three games, averaging 18.7 points across 34.3 minutes per game while throwing in 2.7 boards, 3.3 assists and 2.0 steals. He played last season at Texas-San Antonio and has proven thus far to be a major pickup for UCF.

Williams entered the portal after being dismissed from Syracuse and has taken advantage of his new opportunity by contributing 25 points and 13 boards while shooting 11-for-16 (68.8%) across an average of 18.5 minutes over the last two games.

Jaylin Sellers - Remains out for UCF Sellers (back) won't play Tuesday night against Florida Atlantic, Matt reports.
Impact Sellers hasn't played yet this season. The guard, who averaged 15.9 points across 32 starts last season, should be a major factor for the Knights when he returns. His earliest chance to do so, however, will come on Nov. 19 against Tennessee Tech.

Jordan Ivy-Curry's 18 points allow UCF to catch Purdue-Fort Wayne late, win 75-68

Impact Thiam posted his first double-digit scoring effort in just his second career game. The 7'2" freshman posted 13 points after having struggled offensively in his first game against Texas A&M though he was able to make his presence known defensively in that contest, redirecting six Aggie shots on the evening. Thiam has earned the starting center role early in the season for the Golden Knights and has already proven that he can impact the game on both ends of the court through his first two games.

Keyshawn Hall - First double-double of season Hall provided 14 points (3-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 75-68 win over Purdue Fort Wayne.
Impact After fouling out in just 23 minutes against Texas A&M on Monday, Hall stayed out of foul trouble and managed to see 33 minutes of court time Friday. It wasn't his best night from the field, missing nine of 12 shots, but his aggressiveness underneath led to 12 boards and nine trips to the line, which helped spur his first double-double as a member of the Golden Knights after having posted nine such performances last season with George Mason. Hall is expected to play a key role in the front court this season for UCF, especially if he can consistently stay out of foul trouble.

Mikey Williams - Won't feature Friday Williams (foot) is out for Friday's game against IPFW, according to Black & Gold Banneret.

Impact Ivy-Curry proved he belongs on the bigger stage after transferring to UCF from Texas-San Antonio during the off-season. He finished second on the team in scoring behind Darius Johnson and paced the team on the glass while nearly matching his averages of 17 and five from last season. Ivy-Curry is expected to be a key contributor this season for UCF as they attempt to make a run at an NCAA tournament for the first time since 2019.
