Dontaie Allen - High volume in start, winAllen logged 22 points (6-13 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-10 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Thursday's 81-74 victory over UTSA.

ImpactAllen drew the start Thursday in favor of Jordan Rawls, who was unavailable due to a violation of team rules. It resulted in season-best totals in minutes (38), points (22), rebounds (7) and assists (3). The junior transfer from Kentucky has now attempted 10 or more three-point baskets in two of his last three games, and that type of volume could warrant fantasy relevance, depending on the availability of Rawls.

Jordan Rawls - Serving suspension ThursdayRawls is unavailable Thursday while serving an apparent suspension, Jordan Majewski of SBNation.com reports.

ImpactRawls started the past two games and will now suddenly be unavailable Thursday while serving a suspension for reasons that are currently unknown. The 6-2 senior has seen a much larger role since the calendar turned to 2023, averaging 13.7 points and 3.4 assists over his last seven games. Dontaie Allen will enter the starting five in his place, while it is currently up in the air if Rawls will be cleared to return ahead of Saturday's meeting with UTEP.

Fallou Diagne - Starting ThursdayDiagne is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against UTSA.

ImpactDiagne will get his second start over his last four games but has not seen above 10 minutes on the floor since Dec. 10. The Hilltoppers will roll out a bigger first five than usual, but it's unlikely Diagne's role expands despite being in the starting lineup.

Dontaie Allen - Starting ThursdayAllen is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against UTSA.

ImpactAllen will enter the starting lineup for the first time all year while Jordan Rawls is out due to an apparent suspension. The Kentucky transfer came over to the Hilltoppers in the offseason in search of a larger role but is averaging just 12.6 minutes per contest thus far. He'll finally get a chance to show what he can do with a starting opportunity and will look to help his team break a five-game losing streak.
