Kedrian Johnson - Slightly more efficient in loss Johnson finished Saturday's 84-74 loss to Xavier with six points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 19 minutes.
Impact Johnson shot slightly above his season average while continuing to play a minimal scoring role for the Mountaineers. Through eight games in the 2022-23 campaign, the second-year starter has taken a 6.2-percent step back in his shooting efficiency while attempting 2.7 more field goals per contest compared to last season. Johnson now ranks fifth among West Virginia's starters in points (7.6) and minutes (20.4) per game this season. However, he has provided a solid defensive presence, leading the team with 1.9 steals per game. He'll look to improve upon this inefficient start to the season against Navy on Wednesday.

The 6-foot-7 senior also logged a season high in playing time, as this game was within two points until the final five minutes. The Washington transfer has been one of the Mountaineers' top scorers so far this season, logging 10.4 points per game, and he has now converted 43.5 percent of his 2.9 three-point tries over the team's first eight contests.

The 6-foot-10, 285-pound senior averaged just 13.6 minutes per contest despite starting every game leading into Saturday's loss. Bell has now converted 68.2 percent of his 2.8 field-goal tries per game, and his overall value should continue to be capped by his limited playing time.

While he has not started in any of the Mountaineers' eight games, Toussaint still ranks third on the team in minutes (23.5) and points (10.9) per game. The quasi-starter should continue to see a prominent role versus Navy on Wednesday.
