Fights through elbow injury Carlson totaled 13 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and six rebounds in 25 minutes during Thursday's 72-58 loss to Colorado.
Impact Carlson's left arm was a near non-factor throughout Thursday's contest, representing a clear limitation for the big man's rebounding pursuits and scoring bag. Carlson's season ends with a career-high 17.2 points per game fueled by breakout three-point shooting, although it came in waves and occurred alongside a slight decrease in his defensive production. Nonetheless, the 7-footer has fringe NBA upside and will certainly catch a Summer League opportunity come July.

Impact Carlson is averaging a career-best 17.0 points per game this season, but it was his interior defense that shined Friday. Limiting Washington State's Isaac Jones to 4-for-16 shooting, Carlson enforced the paint while showcasing his blossoming three-point stroke, which resides at a 35.9 percent clip on 3.9 triples per game. Carlson's shooting has been volatile, but the fifth-year senior is off to an excellent start and should be heavily relied upon in PAC-12 play.
