Role shifting positively Jelavic provided six points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 22 minutes during Saturday's 72-63 win over Ole Miss.

Impact Jelavic has now started four games in a row for Big Blue, as he gives the Wildcats a bit more length than previous starter Mouhamed Dioubate. Over those four starts, the 6-11 sophomore has posted 6.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 blocks. The window is open for even more frontcourt minutes of late, as forward Kam Williams suffered a broken foot last week, and Jayden Quaintance is dealing with renewed knee swelling, which significantly jeopardizes the rest of his season as well.

Contributes 11 points, seven boards Jelavic contributed 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds and one steal in 15 minutes during Friday's 99-53 victory over Eastern Illinois.

Impact The 6-11 freshman has been given regular rotation minutes by coach Mark Pope, but had his first double-digit scoring performance of the season. The Wildcats won't run much offense for Jelavic. He was able to take advantage of offensive rebounds against the Panthers. Jelavic might be able to sneak a few double-doubles in during the season, but he is more of a future prospect than a current reality.
