Scores 18 points Christie logged 18 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four assists, three rebounds and two steals across his 26 minutes during Minnesota's win Friday against Texas-San Antonio.

Impact Christie's latest log is why Minnesota recruited him. He committed to the university after averaging 22 points during his junior season of high school.

Two players averaged more than 10.0 points during it, and one of them (Jamison Battle) is now enrolled at another Big Ten school. The 2023-24 Gophers badly need scoring improvement.
