**1 – Svi Mykhailiuk:** Senior delivered a career-high 27 points, didn’t commit a turnover, stole the ball four times, had five defensive rebounds and made 10 of 17 shots, including 5 of 7 3-pointers. Team needs more aggressiveness out of him and that’s exactly what he’s delivering.
**2 – Lagerald Vick:** Attempted just 12 field goals and had 22 points, seven rebounds, three assists and a blocked shot and didn’t turn it over once. Made 9 fo 12 shots and 3 of 6 3-pointers. Coach Bill Self said he thinks Vick has the potential to develop into a defensive stopper but has not yet embraced that mentality.
**3 – Devonte’ Graham:** Didn’t shoot well and forced one or two shots but otherwise played well, delivering on-the-money pass after pass. Had 11 assists and just one turnover.
**4 – Udoka Azubuike:** Bit on a shot fake from a guard under the basket, left his feet and fouled him on the way down for his second foul of the half.
**5 – Malik Newman:** Phog Allen used to say the he judged a player largely by what he did when he didn’t have the ball in his hands. Self subscribes to the same philosophy.By that measure, Newman hasn’t immersed himself into the Kansas basketball culture yet, but he did shoot well. Newman made 4 of 7 field goals, 2 of 4 3-pointers and scored 13 points. He also had two assists but did not pick up a rebound after totaling nine against Kentucky.
**6 – Marcus Garrett:** Had seven rebounds, four assists, four steals and a blocked shot and didn’t commit a turnover. Had a defensive lapse or two, not getting to 3-point shooters in time, and made just 1 of 5 shots and went 0 for 3 from 3.
**7 – Mitch Lightfoot:** He knows how to block shots and had four in this game, but at this point it’s fair to ask whether his shot-blocking instinct is more of a blessing or a curse because he tries to block everything, bites on shot fakes, which is where many of his fouls originate. He fouled out in seven minutes, a very active seven minutes in which he totaled two points, three rebounds and two turnovers.
