Chucky Hepburn - Close to double-doubleHepburn totaled 14 points (3-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 win over Wake Forest.

ImpactHepburn was one of the team's leading scorers alongside Terrence Edwards, and he was impressive as a playmaker since he finished just two assists away from a double-double. Hepburn has dished out seven or more assists in 10 games in a row, averaging 14.9 points and 8.2 assists in that span.

Efton Reid - First double-double of seasonReid supplied 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Louisville.

ImpactReid was efficient as a scoring threat and notched his first double-double of the season. His production has been down compared to the 2023-24 campaign, but he might be showing signs of turning things around. He's scored in double digits in three of his last six appearances.

James Scott - Fills valuable minutesScott contributed eight points (4-4 FG, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 win over Wake Forest.

ImpactAfter scoring a season-best 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting last week against SMU, Scott was back to roughly his season-long average, but continued to offer steady production on the glass. He continues to provide valuable minutes for a Louisville team that lost forwards Kasean Pryor and Aly Khalifa earlier in the year. Now with a 10-game winning streak to improve to 9-1 in ACC play, the Cardinals are looking strongly at a return to the NCAA Tournament.

Cameron Hildreth - Battles illness in defeatHildreth closed with two points (1-6 FG), two rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 72-59 loss to Louisville.

ImpactAccording to Cam lemons of 247 Sports, Hildreth has been battling the flu since prior to Saturday's matchup against Duke. That at least partially explains why the 13.1 ppg scorer has registered games of four and two points while playing 10 less minutes than his season average. Fortunately, however, it hasn't kept him off the court. He'll look to bounce back in a tough home matchup Saturday against Pittsburgh.
