**1 – Wayne Selden Jr.:** Repeatedly pestered Montana guards into turnovers with intense defensive pressure, did a great job of moving the ball and made terrific passes that ranked every bit as high on substance as style and they were plenty stylish. Set a high bar for intensity and teammates fell in line. Had 11 points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals and had just one turnover. Fed Carlton Bragg with a lob delivered from a few steps past half court. Terrific hustle from start to finish on a day he made 5 of 6 two-point attempts and was 0-for-4 beyond the arc.
**2- Perry Ellis:** Was too much for the Grizzlies to handle. Totaled 18 points and nine rebounds, made all 10 of his free throws and was a big reason Montana’s best player, Martin Breunig, was limited to 26 minutes by foul trouble.
**3 – Brannen Greene:** Moved great without the ball, didn’t pout when he was open and the ball didn’t come his way and looked like such a big-time talent when the ball did end up in his hands. Made 3 of 4 three-point shots and scored on an aggressive baseline drive. Had 11 points, three assists, a steal and just one turnover in 19 quality minutes.
**4 – Frank Mason III:** Had nine assists without a single turnover in 23 minutes. Ball was in danger of being stripped as he went up for a bucket in transition, at which point instinct took over and with his left hand Mason wrapped the ball behind his back and put up a shot with his right hand from the left block. He made it and was fouled. Don’t worry if you missed it. It won’t be difficult to find on highlight reels.
**5 – Carlton Bragg:** Earned a second half start and was on the floor with Ellis when Kansas opened the half on a 12-0 run. Had nine points and fed Ellis from the high post for a bucket. Had just two rebounds but also contributed a blocked shot and a steal.
**6 – Svi Mykhailiuk:** Ran down a too-long outlet pass from Bragg and looked fast doing so. Made 4 of 7 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, which enabled public address announcer to say, “Svi for three,” twice. Scored 10 points in 16 minutes.
**7 – Devonté Graham:** Was late arriving to the fieldhouse and paid by not getting to start. Came off the bench to score nine points in 21 minutes and had two offensive rebounds.
**8 – Hunter Mickelson:** Had a blocked shot that the statisticians missed, but his two points, seven rebounds and one steal in 15 minutes were recorded on the official box score.
**9 – Landen Lucas:** Had seven points, six boards and a steal in nine minutes.
**10 – Cheick Diallo:** Always active, sometimes a little too active. Fouled out in 10 minutes, after totaling four points, three rebounds, an assist, a blocked shot, a steal and two turnovers.
**11 – Jamari Traylor:** Hustled his way to three rebounds and two blocked shots in 11 scoreless minutes. Also had three turnovers.
