Tre Mitchell - Team-high eight boards Mitchell produced 12 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 40 minutes during Saturday's 69-61 loss to Texas.

Impact Mitchell finished with double-digit points for the sixth time in West Virginia's first seven conference matchups. The 6-foot-9 senior has also been very effective down low during this span, averaging 8.1 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game. Mitchell has also hit an efficient 47.6 percent of his moderate 3.0 three-point attempts per contest against Big 12 opponents. As a result, he should continue to slot in as the Mountaineers' most valuable all-around fantasy player.

Kedrian Johnson - Posts back-to-back Johnson amassed 22 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-11 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 32 minutes during Saturday's 69-61 loss to Texas.

Impact Johnson followed up his 20-point performance against TCU on Wednesday with a new season high in points Saturday. Even though the 6-foot-3 guard has converted just 34 percent of his 8.3 field-goal attempts per game over the last six contests, he's still averaged 13.0 points over this span thanks to his 7.8 free-throw tries. Johnson's ability to get to the line should continue to make him a consistent scoring threat moving forward.

Jimmy Bell - Another limited outing Bell provided four points (2-4 FG) and five rebounds in 19 minutes during Saturday's 69-61 loss to Texas.

Impact Bell has now averaged 6.3 points and 6.1 rebounds this season. The 285-pound center does lead the Mountaineers in rebounding average, though he sits just narrowly ahead of 6-foot-9 forward Tre Mitchell (5.9), who also led the team with eight boards Saturday. Expect these two to continue jockeying for boards moving forward.

Erik Stevenson - Logs 20 minutes Saturday Stevenson registered nine points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), a rebound and three assists across 20 minutes in Saturday's loss at Oklahoma.

Impact Stevenson cracked the starting lineup Saturday, but as expected, he was limited and failed to surpass the 20-minute mark just for the fifth time in the current campaign. The fact that he played should be positive, however, and he shouldn't have problems featuring against TCU on Wednesday.
