Acuff's 14th 20-point game this season leads No. 21 Arkansas to 91-62 victory over struggling LSU

Darius Acuff Jr. scored 28 points — the freshman’s fifth straight game scoring 21 or more — and No. 21 Arkansas routed reeling LSU 91-62

2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Darius Acuff Jr. - Leads team with 28 points Acuff produced 28 points (13-22 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and five assists across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 91-62 victory over LSU.

Impact Acuff continued his streak of scoring at least 17 points in every conference game and it has stretched to 18 games. His 22 shot attempts were his highest of the season. On the season, the 6-3 freshman is averaging 20.8 points on 49.6 percent from the field and 6.3 assists. Arkansas plays Auburn on Saturday. Acuff scored 19 points, but was held to one assist in the Jan. 10 loss to the Tigers.

Trevon Brazile - Puts up double-double Brazile provided 14 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, five blocks and four steals across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 91-62 victory over LSU.

Impact Brazile provided his fifth double-double and second of the SEC slate. He is playing heavy minutes and has played at least 35 in his last four games as the Razorback depth chart has been ravaged by injury. The 6-10 senior has blocked 3.5 shots over his last four games. Brazile should play major minutes again on Saturday against Auburn. He had 13 points and five rebounds in the Jan. 10 loss to the Tigers.

Impact The 6-10 senior has been the first forward off the the Razorback bench for the majority of the season. The Florida State transfer is averaging 9.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 18.0 minutes. Monitor his status for Saturday's game against Auburn. If he can't go, the already thinned Arkansas depth chart with Karter Knox and D.J. Wagner out will be challenged. Isaiah Sealy could see more minutes.

D.J. Wagner - Downgraded to out Wagner (undisclosed) won't play in Tuesday's game against LSU.

Impact Wagner was initially considered doubtful, so his absence doesn't come as much of a surprise. His next chance to play will come Saturday against Auburn.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Karter Knox - Out at LSU Knox (undisclosed) is out at LSU on Tuesday night.

Impact Knox was deemed doubtful for the Hogs, and indeed, he'll miss his second straight game. The forward, who's started all but three games in which he's played this season, averages 8.4 points and 4.7 rebounds. He'll look to return Saturday against Auburn.

D.J. Wagner - Unlikely to face LSU Wagner (undisclosed) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against LSU.

Karter Knox - Doubtful again Knox (undisclosed) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against LSU.

Trevon Brazile - Scores 19, grabs eight boards Brazile amassed 19 points (7-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Saturday's 88-68 win over Mississippi State.

Impact Brazile has scored 35 points with 16 rebounds, six assists and seven blocks in his last two games. He played the entire game for the first time this season as coach John Calipari went with a seven-man rotation. The 6-10 senior has played at least 35 minutes in his last three games. The Razorbacks head to Baton Rouge to play LSU on Tuesday. Brazile had seven points and seven rebounds in the Jan. 24 win over the Tigers.

Meleek Thomas - Puts up 17 points Thomas accumulated 17 points (7-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals over 40 minutes during Saturday's 88-68 win over Mississippi State.

Impact The Razorback roster was limited without D.J. Wagner and Karter Knox, who were both out with undisclosed injuries. Thomas played the entire game and had a relatively efficient game. The 6-5 freshman had not hit a 3-pointer in his two previous games, but has scored in double digits in 10 of his last 11 games. Arkansas plays LSU on Tuesday. Thomas had 14 points in the Jan. 24 win over the Tigers.

Billy Richmond III - Starts, scores 14 Richmond recorded 14 points (7-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 25 minutes during Saturday's 88-68 win over Mississippi State.

Impact Richmond made just his fifth start of the season as the team was without D.J. Wagner and Karter Knox, who were both out with undisclosed injuries. The 6-6 sophomore scored 14 points for the second straight game and has scored in double digits in four his last six games. In that span, he has not converted a 3-pointer in eight attempts, but has made 58.3 percent of his field goals overall. He could have sneaky value on Tuesday at LSU. Richmond scored 11 points in 28 minutes off the bench against the Tigers on Jan. 24.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Karter Knox - Not playing Saturday Knox (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup versus Mississippi State.

D.J. Wagner - Doubtful against Mississippi State Wagner (undisclosed) has been listed as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against Mississippi State.

Impact Wagner is a new addition to the Razorbacks' injury report, but his injury designation suggests he is in danger of missing his first game of the season. The 6-foot-4 junior, who is averaging 7.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and one steal on 23.4 minutes per game, will have his status tracked during pregame warmups Saturday morning.

Karter Knox - Doubtful to play Saturday Knox (undisclosed) is listed as doubtful ahead of the Hogs' clash with Mississippi State.

Impact Knox hasn't missed a game since the opener, but the sophomore forward could change that Saturday. He averages 8.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists while starting 21 of 18 games in which he's played.

Darius Acuff Jr. - Catches fire after halftime Acuff registered 22 points (8-20 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 39 minutes during Saturday's 85-77 loss to Kentucky.

Impact Acuff went into the break with just five points, but asserted himself offensively in the second half. He has three 20-point games in a row and has not been held below 17 points in conference play. The 6-3 freshman has averaged 3.3 assists in the Razorbacks' three SEC losses and 7.8 assists in wins. The team will look to start a new winning streak on Saturday against Mississippi State.

Impact Brazile has been held to single-digit scoring in three of his last five games, but was more aggressive offensively against the Wildcats. He has averaged 9.0 rebounds over his last four games and the Razorbacks had won the previous three games. Arkansas does not have a weekday game and plays at Mississippi State next Saturday. Brazile had 11 points and 11 rebounds in the regular season finale win over the Bulldogs last season.
