Blanked in win Manyawu had zero points (0-1 FG), three rebounds and two assists in 13 minutes during Sunday's 84-66 win over Oregon.

Impact Manyawu has been very quiet as of late, and that certainly continued to be the case in the win over Oregon on Feb. 1. The junior forward was held to zero points for the first time since Jan. 11 and just the third time all season. He got the start, but only played 13 minutes; at this point, he's not a huge factor in Iowa's rotation despite being an every-game starter.

Limited to eight minutes in loss Manyawu produced zero points (0-1 FG) and one rebound across eight minutes during Sunday's 75-69 loss to Illinois.

Impact Manyawu played just eight minutes against the Illini, his lowest playing time all season. He missed his only shot and pulled down one rebound to barely make a dent on the stat sheet. The junior forward has started every game for the Hawkeyes but is averaging just 16.3 minutes. He hasn't been that impactful as scorer, and that shouldn't be expected to change any time soon.

Near double-double in win Manyawu produced 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 21 minutes during Monday's 90-62 win over UMass Lowell.

Impact Manyawu was very productive in the win over UMass Lowell, setting a season-high in points with 14 and matching his season-high in rebounds with nine. He remains extremely efficient this season, shooting a blistering 72.7 percent from the field. The front courts of the Big Ten, on tap next following the conclusion of out-of-conference play, will present a more difficult challenge, but the Drake transfer is proving he belongs.

Impact Manyawu looks to be hitting his stride with Iowa, as he's now notched double-digit points in three straight games. The center, who came over from Drake with head coach Ben McCollum, is shooting a career best 63.2 percent from the field this year. He'll look to keep it rolling against Bucknell on Saturday.

Impact Manyawu dropped 12 points on four shots, a very solid outing in a very solid win for Iowa as the Hawkeyes moved to 4-0. It was good to see an efficient outing from the center, who was shooting under 50 percent from the field entering Tuesday night.
