Last Night in College Basketball: A Brutal Weekend for Iowa State Basketball

Sencire Harris - Filling in for Kriisa Harris contributed 12 points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 20 minutes during Saturday's 79-70 victory over Iowa State.

Impact Harris has been the main beneficiary of Kerr Kriisa (shoulder) missing time, as he's started the last six games for Cincinnati and is posting 7.0 ppg, 3.8 rpg, 2.5 apg and 1.3 spg over that stretch. While those are respectable numbers, look for those to take a bit of a hit upon Kriisa's eventual return. After an 0-3 start to Big 12 play, Cincinnati has now won two in a row, with Saturday's victory representing by far its best win of the season. Things don't get any easier with a road trip to Arizona set for Wednesday.

No. 2 Iowa State loses second straight, 79-70 to Cincinnati

Day Day Thomas scored 19 points to lead Cincinnati to a 79-70 win Saturday over No. 2 Iowa State, which has lost two straight after winning its first 16 games

2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Day Day Thomas - Leads Bearcats to upset Thomas finished with 19 points (8-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 27 minutes during Saturday's 79-70 victory over Iowa State.

Impact Thomas scored a team-leading 19 points to help spur the Bearcats to an upset over the second-ranked Cyclones. The senior guard, who was buoyed by a season-high 18 shots, reached double figures in the scoring column for the first time in four games and just the third time in nine as the Bearcats won their second straight after starting the conference slate with three losses. Thomas will take averages of 12.6 opints, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals into an even tougher matchup when the Bearcats travel to face the top-ranked Arizona Wildcats on Wednesday.

Kerr Kriisa - Unavailable vs. Iowa State Kriisa (shoulder) is out for Saturday's game against Iowa State.

Impact Cincinnati's team is scheduled against a challenging but beatable team whose undefeated streak recently came to an embarrassing halt Tuesday at Kansas. The senior, currently averaging 2.1 three-pointers made on a 33.3 three-point percentage this season, is still recovering, so Cincy will be short-handed on outside shooting Saturday.

Cincinnati holds off Colorado 77-68 for the Bearcats' first Big 12 win this season

Baba Miller scores 25 points and grabs 11 rebounds, leading Cincinnati to a 77-68 victory over Colorado on Wednesday night

5 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Baba Miller - Dominant in win Miller registered 25 points (10-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 77-68 victory over Colorado.

Impact Miller dominated down low, putting together his eighth double double of the season and the third such effort in which he's tallied at least 20 and 10. Miller had seen his production dip in his first three conference games after having averaged a double double through 11 non-conference contests but a matchup with the Buffaloes cured all of his ailments as the senior big man also added four dimes and two blocks in the high quality all-around effort. Wednesday's performance was encouraging for Miller but his next matchup will provide a greater test as he and the Bearcats are set up for a matchup against a second-ranked Iowa State squad that is coming off its first loss of the season.

Thiam leads Cincinnati against Colorado after 24-point game

Kerr Kriisa - Out against Colorado Kriisa (shoulder) will not appear in Wednesday's game against Colorado.

Impact Kriisa will miss his third-straight game as the Bearcats host the Buffaloes on Wednesday night. The 6-foot-3 senior, who is averaging 7.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists on 24.4 minutes per game (14 games), will have his next chance to return Saturday against ISU, but his expected status for the contest is unknown.

Thiam leads Cincinnati against Colorado after 24-point outing

Cincinnati takes on the Colorado Buffaloes after Moustapha Thiam scored 24 points in Cincinnati's 73-72 loss to the UCF Knights

JANUARY 13 • Associated Press

Baba Miller - All-around producer Miller accumulated 13 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, two blocks and two steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 73-72 loss to UCF.

Impact Cincinnati may be struggling as a program, but Miller remains a consistent fantasy asset due to his all-around production. He's a capable scorer, with games of 24 and 26 points this season, but the ancillary stats are there even when the shots aren't falling. He chips in 10.6 rebounds per contest, and his 3.0 apg mark is excellent for a 6-11 center, not to mention 1.4 blocks and 1.1 steals. It's a small sample size, but his rebounding average has dropped more than three per game in three Big 12 games, so it remains to be seen if the senior might hit a wall in conference play. That said, Miller has a positive fantasy outlook until proven otherwise.

Jizzle James - Seeing added run James logged 14 points (7-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 35 minutes during Sunday's 73-72 loss to UCF.

Impact James is back in the good graces of the program after some offseason drama led to his dismissal and ensuing reinstatement. He made his season debut Dec. 17, moved into the starting five Dec. 29, and has been seeing added run of late due to Kerr Kriisa managing a shoulder injury. That said, the Bearcats are just 8-8 on the season and 0-3 in Big 12 play, so the lineup will be susceptible to a shakeup, especially when Kriisa returns.

Moustapha Thiam - Sets career high vs former team Thiam produced 24 points (10-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 31 minutes during Sunday's 73-72 loss to UCF.

Impact Thiam set career-best marks in scoring (24) and made field goals (10) during the Bearcats' one-point loss against his former school. The 7-foot-2 sophomore big man provided much of his production from within the paint, though he did connect on his fifth three pointer of the season. Thiam has been a solid addition for Cincinnati, averaging 11.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.8 blocks while increasing his scoring production to 14.8 points over his last five games.
