Fingerprints all over Rutgers win Smith contributed 16 points (5-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and eight assists in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 81-65 victory over Rutgers.
Impact After he only took four shots in a blowout win over Eastern Illinois, Smith was more assertive in the Boilermakers' Big Ten opener. He canned four triples en route to his highest point total since Nov. 16 against Akron when he also dropped 16 points. He continues to be a highly skilled passer, as his eight dimes once again easily led the way for Purdue. Even when Smith has an off night shooting the basketball, there's so many other ways he can help his team win.

First double-double of '25-26 Smith closed with 16 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Sunday's 97-79 victory over Akron.
Impact Smith has been electric this season, including his 29-point showing in a massive takedown of Alabama. Still, the win over the Zips was the first time the All-American point guard logged a double-double this season. It's his second double-digit assist game this season, and while he was rather cold from the field hitting just 4-of-12 shots, he's still been excellent overall as a scorer and is shooting 40 percent from downtown on 5.0 attempts per game. Smith's exploits have helped pilot the Boilermakers back into the No. 1 spot in the AP Poll.
