Sir'Jabari Rice - Posts another season highRice ended Saturday's 94-60 victory over West Virginia with 24 points (5-6 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 17 minutes.ImpactRice eclipsed his previous season high for points (21) set Jan. 28 against Tennessee. Including this win against the Bears, the 6-foot-4 senior has averaged 18.4 minutes and 4.4 rebounds while playing 23 minutes per game while coming off the bench in each of the last five games. He's also converted 52.1 percent of his 9.6 field-goal tries per game during that span. The New Mexico State and sixth man seems to have carved out a role as the Longhorns' best scoring option after playing a supplementary role behind starting guards Tyrese Hunter and Marcus Carr for most of the season. While it's unlikely Rice will continue to score at this highly efficient clip, he should be worth significant fantasy consideration until this hot shooting cools off.
