AJ Dybantsa - Supplying the offense Dybantsa accumulated 35 points (13-28 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds and two assists over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 75-68 loss to Arizona.

Impact Dybantsa took on the offensive load for BYU during their road loss, hoisting up a season-high 28 points while topping the 30-point mark for the sixth time this season. The Cougars are a much more limited team offensively without Richie Saunders, who was lost for the season with a torn-ACL during their last game, meaning that Dybantsa is going to have to take on an even bigger offensive load if BYU wants to have any success once the postseason tournaments start. Over his last eight games, Dybantsa is averaging 29.9 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists while shooting 50.6-percent from the floor and 42.2-percent from beyond the arc.

Richie Saunders - Tears ACL vs. Colorado Saunders tore his ACL during Saturday's win over Colorado, per Joe Tipton of On3.com.

Impact Saunders will miss the remainder of the season after sustaining a non-contact injury early in Saturday's victory. The senior guard was having the most productive campaign of his career before getting hurt, as he averaged 18.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.7 steals across 31.4 minutes in 25 appearances. With Saunders' season over, Kennard Davis will likely takeover as BYU's starting shooting guard.

Robert Wright III - Drops 39 in OT win Wright closed with 39 points (12-16 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 11-13 FT), five rebounds and four assists over 40 minutes during Saturday's 90-86 OT win over Colorado.

Impact Wright is in the midst of arguably his best stretch of the season. On top of back-to-back 30-point games, he's shooting 65.2 percent from the field (and 75.0 percent from distance) over the latest three-game stretch. With Richie Saunders (18.0 ppg) sustaining a non-contact injury early in this matchup, it will likely be up to Wright to carry the offense alongside AJ Dybantsa as the Cougars look to improve their tournament seeding.

Tyler Mrus - Nails two threes in OT win Mrus recorded six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and two rebounds across 16 minutes during Saturday's 90-86 OT win over Colorado.

Impact Mrus logged his highest minute total since early January in the win over the Buffs, and he made the most of his elevated opportunities. The junior forward has now nailed two or more shots beyond the arc in four games this season, which has been a quiet difference maker. He should remain a spark off the bench moving forward, especially if he can remain efficient shooting-wise.
