Butler Bulldogs News

Finley Bizjack - Productive in return Bizjack registered 19 points (7-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and six assists over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 93-89 win over Georgetown.

Impact Bizjack returned to the court Wednesday after missing one game with a wrist injury. He put together a very productive performance, logging 19 points and tying a season high with six assists. He only made one of six three-point attempts, but his contributions were enough to earn Butler a win. The win was significant not only because it broke a six-game losing streak, but it also marked head coach Thad Matta's 500th career win.

Finley Bizjack - Available at Georgetown Bizjack (wrist) is available for Wednesday's game at Georgetown.

Impact Bizjack will good to go for the conference matchup versus the Hoyas after missing the Bulldogs' most recent loss to Seton Hall with a left wrist injury. The junior guard has been a dominator for Butler so far this season, as he's averaging 17.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists across 25 showings.

Evan Haywood - Won't play at Hoyas Haywood (undisclosed) is out Wednesday at Georgetown.

Evan Haywood - Question mark Wednesday Haywood (undisclosed) is questionable for Butler's clash with Georgetown on Wednesday.

Impact Haywood has started the last three games for Butler, but he's in danger of missing his first game of the season. The sophomore point guard has averaged 6.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists as a starter, but his availability for Wednesday night is firmly in question.

Finley Bizjack - Questionable at Hoyas Bizjack (wrist) is questionable for Wednesday's game at Georgetown.

Impact Bizjack missed the Bulldogs' most recent loss to Seton Hall, and he's now at risk of missing back-to-back outings. The junior guard's absence would be a big loss for Butler, as he's averaging 17.4 points per game across 25 contests this season. If he's unable to play, Jamie Kaiser is likely to get the start in his stead once again.

Yame Butler - Seven assists in return Butler notched six points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and seven assists across 24 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 63-56 loss to Seton Hall.

Impact Butler, who did not appear in last Wednesday's loss to UConn for undisclosed reasons, made his return to the court Sunday. He passed the ball very well, recording a season-high seven assists and committing just two turnovers despite that increase in volume. He chipped in six points as well, but he needed six field goal attempts to get there. It marked one of his most productive outings of the season as he's been pretty quiet through much of this campaign.

Yohan Traore - Solid in Sunday's loss Traore had nine points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-7 FT) and seven rebounds over 31 minutes during Sunday's 63-56 loss to Seton Hall.

Impact Traore put together a solid outing in Sunday's loss as he tied a season high with seven rebounds and scored nine points in a season-high 31 minutes off the bench. He wasn't particularly efficient though as he hit just three of his eight attempts from the field and sunk just three of his seven free throw attempts. He'll look to help lead Butler out of this six-game losing streak Wednesday at Georgetown.

Michael Ajayi - Productive in Sunday's loss Ajayi contributed 21 points (7-16 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block across 34 minutes during Sunday's 63-56 loss to Seton Hall.

Impact Ajayi had yet another productive performance Sunday as he recorded his 17th double-double of the campaign. He led the team in points (21) and rebounds (12), but he was unable to stop the Bulldogs from losing their sixth consecutive game. He'll look to end Butler's poor run of form Wednesday at Georgetown.

Evan Haywood - Hits four threes Wednesday Haywood logged 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-9 3Pt), two rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 80-70 loss to UConn.

Impact Haywood made his second consecutive start Wednesday, seemingly acting as the permeant replacement for Azavier Robinson (wrist) who has been ruled out for the remainder of the season. Haywood played well with his increased role, hitting four triples and providing four assists in the very difficult matchup. Given his increased role, he should have more value during this final month of the season.

Drayton Jones - Scores 15 versus UConn Jones provided 15 points (6-6 FG, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 80-70 loss to UConn.

Impact Jones scored a season-high 15 points in Wednesday's loss to UConn, going a perfect 6-6 from the field and 3-3 from the free throw line. It was an impressive performance against a very tough defense, and Jones was basically the only Bulldog with a positive performance. It was a great way to bounce back after he scored just three points and grabbed zero rebounds Saturday at Marquette.

Impact Robinson had been dealing with a left wrist injury recently, and the issue will require a surgery that will prevent him from returning this season. With Robinson out of the picture, Evan Haywood and Efeosa Oliogu-Elabor should see an increase in playing time.
