Eric Dixon - Drops 38 against Terrapins Dixon provided 38 points (15-29 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Sunday's 76-75 loss to Maryland.
Impact Dixon was that guy offensively for the Wildcats in the near win against Maryland, but his career-high 38 points wasn't enough as the team lost by just one. The senior forward is now averaging 26.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.2 steals across five games, and he's been relied on as the top scorer for Villanova with no game under 20 points yet this year. He'll likely have an easier matchup on Wednesday against Rider, but Big East opponents will soon arrive for tougher games.

Jordan Longino - Regular starter for Nova Longino is averaging 9.7 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists across 31.3 minutes through the first six games of the 2024-25 season for Villanova.
Impact It's rare these days to see a player stick with the same program for their entire career, but now in his fourth season at Villanova, Longino has earned a starting role for the Wildcats. It's no surprise that with a 10 mpg increase from a season ago, the senior wing is averaging career bests across the board. While not eye-popping the consistent production could make Longino worth a look as a fantasy streaming option when the Wildcats have a busy week on the schedule.

Enoch Boakye - Steady role for Villanova Boakye is averaging 5.7 points and 6.3 rebounds across 19.8 minutes through six games to start the season for Villanova.
Impact Boakye has started all six games at center for the 3-3 Wildcats, though he often gives way to Eric Dixon when coach Kyle Neptune wants to go with a smaller lineup -- hence the lower minutes total despite not often finding himself in foul trouble. The Fresno State transfer is more utilized for his rim protection and rebounding than his offense, though despite a slight scoring dip from last season, he's shooting an efficient 64.7 percent from the field, which would represent a career high.

Wooga Poplar - 19 points off bench vs. Penn Poplar racked up 19 points (6-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 93-49 victory over Penn.
Impact The senior guard was surprisingly moved to the bench by the Wildcats after starting every game so far this season, but he still managed to contribute heavily and rack up the second-most points for Villanova behind Eric Dixon. Poplar's benching could have been due to the low-anticipated talent level of Penn, but his status moving forward should still be monitored.
