MARCH 3 • Associated Press

Leads Gophers to upset Durkin registered 23 points (7-12 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, three assists and one block over 40 minutes during Saturday's 78-73 win over UCLA.

Impact Durkin has been on an absolute tear from the three-point line, clearing three or more triples in nine consecutive games and hitting 51.4 percent from distance over that span. The Davidson transfer has came on late in the year, averaging 14.5 ppg over his last 10 games. He's also taking on a heavy minutes toll, playing 36.6 mpg since entering the starting lineup Dec. 3. Simply put, Durkin has been a major part of coach Niko Medved's seemingly instant turnaround of the Minnesota basketball program. He'll be a key piece if he sticks around for his senior year.

Another three triples in win Durkin finished Tuesday's 61-44 victory over Oregon with 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes.

Impact Durkin has now hit three three-pointers in four straight games for the Gophers. The junior forward was rather inconsistent, especially from a scoring standpoint, to start the season, but he's averaging 14.0 points on 54/46/100 shooting splits over his last seven games. Durkin will look to continue to his improved play down the stretch for Minnesota, starting with a home game against Rutgers on Saturday.

Minnesota visits the Penn State Nittany Lions after Bobby Durkin scored 20 points in the Golden Gophers' 67-63 loss to the Wisconsin Badgers

JANUARY 31 • Associated Press

Nails five threes in defeat Durkin closed with 20 points (7-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 67-63 loss to Wisconsin.

Impact Durkin got out to a red-hot start, scoring his team's first eight points and 11 of the Gophers' first 14. While he slowed a bit in the second-half and the Badgers were ultimately able to overcome a 35-17 halftime deficit, Durkin still finished with season-highs in scoring and three-pointers made. He was essentially the X-factor with leading scorer Cade Tyson (20.1 ppg) sidelined by an ankle injury, and could continue to see more offensive looks for as long as Tyson is sidelined.

Held in check by Badgers Durkin ended Tuesday's 78-75 loss to Wisconsin with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and two assists over 29 minutes.

Impact Durkin shot 50 percent from the field, but only notched seven points and two assists as he couldn't get to the free throw line and couldn't consistently find his shot. Still, Durkin has taken his game up a notch since entering the starting lineup for the Gophers in December, averaging 10.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists.
