**1 – Devonte’ Graham:** Tied career-high with 35 points, made 7 of 13 3-pointers, had five assists, most on lobs, and five turnovers with two steals. Outscored Syracuse 14-4 at end of first half and stayed hot throughout second half. Averaging 35 points in past two games.
**2 – Lagerald Vick:** Terrific night. Did a nice job of getting the ball in the middle of the zone and reading his options. Can hit the mid-range jumper, one of the things that makes him dangerous in that spot. Also did a nice job of finding open 3-point shooters. Flirted with a triple-double with 20 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. Had two steals and three turnovers and his high-flying left-handed flush on a lob from Graham ranks high on his building career-highlight video.
**3 – Svi Mykhailiuk:** Bad passing led to three first-half turnovers and four for the night. Made 3 of 7 3-pointers, scored 11 points and had four rebounds and four assists.
**4 – Udoka Azubuike:** Looked puzzled as to where he should be at times against Syracuse’s 2-3 zone. Didn’t make himself available for post feeds, but did nice job on the boards. Had six points, nine rebounds and one blocked shot. Two first-half fouls limited him to six minutes.
**5 – Malik Newman:** Rough night. Vick consistently fed him for wide-open 3-pointers but Newman couldn’t drain them and finished 1 for 8 from the field and 0 for 6 from beyond the arc. Had five rebounds, five assists and three turnovers.
**6 – Marcus Garrett:** Scoreless in eight minutes, he had two rebounds and a turnover and was whistled for three fouls, which isn’t necessarily the same as saying he committed three fouls.
**7 – Mitch Lightfoot:** Threw down a lob, blocked a shot and committed four fouls in eight minutes.
